What it does
Science Careers is the job and career-development service from Science and AAAS. Its vacancy board offers discipline and location searches alongside employer browsing, alerts and scientific career resources.
Use the discipline list to find related research areas rather than relying only on a broad term such as biology. The board distinguishes areas including genomics, immunology, materials science and physical sciences, helping a specialist build a more relevant search. Faculty and postdoctoral routes provide additional starting points.
The site links to career advice, videos and the myIDP planning tool, which address decisions beyond finding the next advert. Use those resources to examine direction and preparation, then return to the vacancy’s research and application requirements. Employer browsing can help identify institutions to investigate further. Alerts are useful once you know the area and geography you want to follow.
