Appendix

Sample SMART Goals – from two different students:

SAMPLE 1:
Goal Get a summer internship in biotech
Specific I am looking to get a summer internship at a biotech company. This is
so that I can get industry exposure and networking opportunities. The
internship goal is for one that gives me opportunities for upward
mobility, communication with upper management, and publicity.
Measurable One offer will equal success. I will (see “Achievable”) put at least 1 hour
per day into research and applications.
Achievable I will achieve this goal by applying through as many academic
programs as I can find, calling company recruiters, and applying to
hospital volunteer positions.
Relevant My long-term goal is to get into medical school. This internship will
increase my knowledge in the field and support my application.
TimeBound
I am ready to start the internship in June, but, the ideal would be to
have a position set in stone by early May.PDP Part C: SMART Goals

SAMPLE 2:
Goal: UX Designer job by graduation
Specific
My goal is to be hired for a full-time UX Designer job outside of Southern
California before I graduate in June 2020. Why it’s important is because I
want to pursue a career I believe I will enjoy. Also, currently I depend on
my parents’ financial support, and I want to be financially independent and
no longer need my parents’ generosity.
Measurable I will know I’ve achieved my goal when I get an offer.
Achievable
This goal is definitely realistic; however, I will need to keep myself
accountable to complete all the steps necessary to reach my goal. I can
accomplish my goal by setting time increments of tasks I need to complete
(shown in time-bound) and always keep an eye out for new jobs that open
up. Additionally, I need to keep myself motivated. What I’ve learned from
the internship search this year is that I start losing motivation when I don’t
see results. I can’t let this happen again.
Relevant
This goal is worthwhile because it is relevant to my current career
ambitions of becoming Designer of Services and Experiences in a top
design firm or in the design department of a top company.
Timebound
Steps for now:
– School: Take relevant Design and Cognitive Science courses and do
projects that will translate well in my portfolio.
– Internship: Do well in my summer internship which may lead to a
full-time offer.
– Job-hunting: Apply for jobs over the summer and during the year,
go to career fairs, prepare for interviews until I receive an offer.
