Academic goals and career goals often go hand-in-hand, simply because the career path a person chooses is often predicated on the type of education or training theyre able to secure for themselves. As such, the goals a person establishes in an academic setting may be finite in nature, while career goals are typically broader, with long-term objectives in mind.
