What do you want to do when you grow up?

The Phoenix Zoo is excited to host its second annual Teen Career Conference! This is an opportunity for teens and their parents to explore many different careers in animal science. Attendees will learn about a wide range of animal science fields directly from dedicated professionals who have made animal care and conservation their life’s work.

Through specially selected speaker panels, teens will hear from experts in Zoology, Conservation, Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Care working both within the Phoenix Zoo and in the field. These speakers will offer insights into their career paths and advice on breaking into their respective fields.

Representatives from the Phoenix Zoo and other scientific and educational institutions from around the Valley will also be on hand to talk one-on-one with teens and their parents. They will offer information about programs and opportunities for teens to begin working toward their careers right now. Volunteer opportunities, camps, and other programs will all be highlighted.

All teens and parents of teens are welcome to attend.
