Career center

Learners who complete Evolución: Síntesis extendida will develop knowledge and skills that may be useful to these careers:
Evolutionary Biologist
An _Evolutionary Biologist_ studies the evolution of living organisms through time. The work involves researching the processes that cause the changes, including natural selection and genetic drift. As this course covers the principles of evolution as well as the Extended Evolutionary Synthesis, it would be especially relevant. By developing an understanding of the different mechanisms and processes of evolution, learners can develop tools to study adaptation, diversity, and speciation.
Paleontologist
A _Paleontologist_ studies the history of life on Earth by examining fossils. The work involves excavating fossils, preparing them for study, and analyzing them to learn about the evolution of species. This course would be especially helpful in developing an understanding of the history of life on Earth and the processes that have shaped it.
Research Scientist
A _Research Scientist_ conducts experiments, analyzes data, and develops new theories to advance scientific knowledge. This course can be a helpful start to building a foundation for conducting scientific research. It may be beneficial in particular because it will contribute to an understanding of scientific inquiry in the field of evolution.
Conservation Geneticist
A _Conservation Geneticist_ evaluates the risk of extinction faced by species and develops strategies for their conservation. The work involves collecting genetic data from populations, analyzing the data to assess genetic diversity and structure, and using the information to make recommendations for conservation management. A deep understanding of evolution is required in this field. As this course will build a solid foundation in this area, it may be helpful in landing a role as a Conservation Geneticist.
Naturalist
A _Naturalist_ studies plants, animals, and other natural resources. The work involves observing and recording data on species, their habitats, and their interactions with each other. They also develop and implement conservation plans to protect natural resources. Some _Naturalists_ work in the field, while others work in museums or other educational settings. This course could provide a foundation in the principles of evolution as they relate to natural resources and their conservation.
Microbiologist
A _Microbiologist_ studies microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. The work involves studying the structure and function of microorganisms, and how they interact with each other and with their environment. This course may prove helpful in understanding the evolutionary forces that have shaped the diversity of microorganisms on Earth.
Zoologist
A _Zoologist_ studies animals, including their behavior, ecology, and evolution. The work involves studying the diversity of animals, their habitats, and their interactions with each other and with their environment. This course may help build a foundation in understanding the evolutionary forces that have shaped the diversity and behavior of animals.
Developmental Biologist
A _Developmental Biologist_ studies the development of organisms from embryos to adulthood. The work involves studying the genes and other factors that control development, and how these factors can be affected by environmental factors. This course may be helpful in providing an understanding of the evolutionary forces that have shaped the development of organisms.
Geneticist
A _Geneticist_ studies genes and their role in inheritance. The work involves studying the structure and function of genes, and how they are passed from parents to offspring. This course may be helpful in providing an understanding of the evolutionary forces that have shaped the genetic makeup of organisms.
Molecular Biologist
A _Molecular Biologist_ studies the structure and function of molecules that are essential for life. The work involves studying the structure and function of proteins, nucleic acids, and other molecules, and how they interact with each other to carry out cellular processes. This course may help build a foundation in understanding the evolutionary forces that have shaped the molecular basis of life.
Bioinformatician
A _Bioinformatician_ uses computational tools to analyze biological data. The work involves developing and applying algorithms to identify patterns in genetic sequences, protein structures, and other types of biological data. This course may be helpful in providing an understanding of the evolutionary forces that have shaped the biological data that is analyzed.
Ecologist
An _Ecologist_ studies the interactions between organisms and their environment. The work involves studying the distribution and abundance of species, and how these factors are affected by environmental factors. This course may be helpful in providing an understanding of the evolutionary forces that have shaped the interactions between organisms and their environment.
Physiologist
A _Physiologist_ studies the function of living organisms. The work involves studying the function of organs, tissues, and cells, and how they interact with each other to maintain homeostasis. This course may prove helpful in developing an understanding of the evolutionary forces that have shaped the function of living organisms.
Science Educator
A _Science Educator_ teaches science to students at all levels, from elementary school to college. This course can contribute to a foundation for the subject matter. The course has a focus on evolution and evolutionary biology, a key topic in the field of science. It can be helpful in developing engaging lesson plans on evolution.
Science Writer
A _Science Writer_ communicates complex scientific information to a general audience. The work involves writing articles, books, and other materials that explain scientific concepts and discoveries in a clear and engaging way. This course could be a helpful start to building a background in the subject field. By developing an understanding of evolution, learners can better communicate scientific concepts to a general audience.
