Graduate School Search: Applying to PhD and MS programs

Register

Join the Greene Center for part 1 in our 5-part series dedicated to supporting students' graduate school searches. In this first session, you’ll learn about the current landscape of graduate education and determine what your long-term goals are for graduate work. There will also be practical advice surrounding financing your graduate school journey. Through a brief presentation and peer-to-peer discussions, you will be ready to hit the ground running in your graduate school search.

Key takeaways-

- Connect your longer-term professional goals with graduate education decisions
- Begin to investigate pathways of interest along with the skills, experiences, and degrees employers are seeking in successful candidates
- Investigate differences and similarities between masters, professional school, PhD graduate program application processes
- Understand the financial implications of pursuing a graduate degree
- You can attend as few or as many sessions in this series as you want. If you miss a session, it does not mean you can not participate in a different session this Spring. We will offer each part of our 5-part series twice this Spring.
