The St. Olaf Chemistry Major -- 10 Years Out

What will you be doing 10-20 years from now?

Well, of course, no one can say. But here is a compilation of what some of the alumni chemistry majors of St. Olaf College were doing 10-20 years after they graduated.

This list is based on alumni data for chemistry major graduates of 1980-1990 residing in Minnesota as of 8/1/2001 (215 alumni; somewhat less than half of all alumni for this period). The list is separated into three areas: academic, business/industrial, and medical/spiritual. Rather than listing the same information multiple times, a single entry in this table may represent more than one graduate. The exact number of graduates with each specific combination of major and career path is not indicated.

Questions may be directed to Bob Hanson.
