The purpose of this professional development workshop (PDW) is to educate potential PhD students about a career in academia and provide advice and information on how to navigate the PhD Admissions process. The PDW will emphasize: 1) A Career in Academia, 2) Finding Your Research Fit, 3) The Keys to a Successful PhD Application, and 4) A Day in the Life of a PhD Student. As competition for admission to PhD programs grows, applicants need to understand how to succeed in the PhD admissions process and more importantly, how to find the PhD program that will help them achieve their career goals. Individuals applying to PhD programs in the next 1-2 years will benefit from this PDW by learning more about the PhD admissions process through presentations, panel discussions, and round table discussions. The four-part PDW will provide ample opportunities for attendees to ask questions of current PhD coordinators, faculty, and PhD students. Attendees will walk away equipped with a greater understanding of a career in academia and the PhD admissions process. Attendees will also expand their network of peers and faculty to help them further navigate the PhD application process.

This session will be IN-PERSON in Chicago.
