Many human development and family sciences students struggle to identify who they are and how best to use their knowledge and skills.

Navigating Career Roadmaps: Developing Your Professional GPS through Internships provides students with step-by-step instructions and tips for using internship and professional opportunities to reach their final desired destination: a fulfilling career.

Now in its second edition, this book by two faculty members in UGA’s College of Family and Consumer Sciences, Jennifer L. Gonyea, a senior lecturer in human development and family sciences, and Melissa Scott Kozak, a lecturer and undergraduate program coordinator in human development and family sciences, aims to help readers identify who they are, who they want to be and how they can get there, as well as how to find, secure and make the most of their internships.

This new edition also features a new chapter on generating self presentation through writing.
