Abstract: Academic advisors play a vital role in the case of the 'undecided student.' As advisors for the Indiana University School of Medicine, every student matriculates with the career goal of becoming a doctor, but with 52 specialties to apply to and fellowships galore post residency, our students often only know they want to 'help people.' As advisors, we are given the opportunity to coach students through the process of developing self-authorship in accordance with choosing their career path. Based on Magolda's Theory of Self-Authorship, advisors can act as a thought partner in helping students learn to find answers to their own questions. Within our session, participants will learn how we incorporate career coaching within our advising sessions and come away with tips for incorporating them into their own practice.
