Science Resumes

Use the links below to view and save a sample science resume.  All three styles contain identical content, making it easier for you to compare the layouts of all three before choosing the one you think looks best.

You'll need Microsoft Word to use the Word files, and you'll need Adobe Acrobat to view the PDF files.

If possible, use the MS Word files.  You'll be able to edit these files and actually type over the existing content as you install your own information.  In effect, you can use these files as a template.  If you RIGHT CLICK on the MS Word files, you can use the "Save As" command to save a copy of the file on your own drive.  You can then use the file for your own resume, typing over the existing text and preserving the format that is already established.
