There are plans for a research poster session, second year BTD 9 and 10 Fellows are expected to prepare and present posters on their research. First year BTD 11 Fellows will be encouraged to prepare and present posters as appropriate to their research situation, i.e., if they have already conducted substantial research and/or have a solid research proposal, they may present.
The workshop will provide helpful information for both individual and group interviews as well as how to survive the student/faculty socials.
This workshop will cover the entire graduate school application process by breaking it down into easy to follow steps. The workshop will cover both the Master’s and Doctorate level application process and will discuss topics such as how to begin the process, how to select schools, and how to prepare all the needed materials such as CVs/Resumes, statements of purpose, and letters of recommendation. Both students currently in the graduate school application process and those preparing for their future application are welcome.
