Cheeky Scientist’s mission is to help academics receive the industry training they need to transition successfully into the industry position of their choice while helping to provide them with a positive academic environment to work in until they transition. We have three main goals: 1) Place 100,000 academics into industry positions. 2) Support all advanced degree programs in providing industry training to their students, members, and researchers. 3) Enact change that requires all government-funded principle investigators and academics to receive management and financial training.
