A part-time job or internship with a company that offers remote sensing services is a good way to gain experience in this field while making valuable work connections. Find job postings and career resources at the Students section of the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) Web site, https://www.asprs.org/Students.html. An informational interview with a remote sensing technician will give you insights into how they got started in the profession and what a typical day on the job is like. Ask your school's career services office for help with securing an interview. Participating in a professional association is also a good way to network with remote sensing professionals and learn about job opportunities. Groups such as the ASPRS and the IEEE Computer Society, among many others, offer student memberships as well as student discounts for various classes and programs.
