Description:
The decision to embark on graduate study must be made carefully. How do you know when you are ready? Should you go immediately after Brown, or work for a few years? Masters or Ph.D? Which schools would be a good fit? What about funding? What will the lifestyle be like?Join this panel of current masters and Ph.D. students as they discuss their decision making process, and what they know now that they wish they had known when they were applying. Panelists will discuss issues related to timing, funding, picking the right program and school, the application process, and the life of a grad student. The panel will be moderated by Associate Dean of the Graduate School Jabbar Bennett.
More about Brown University
Brown University
Brown was the Baptist answer to Congregationalist Yale and Harvard, Presbyterian Princeton, and Episcopalian Penn and Columbia. At the time, it was the only one that welcomed students of all religious persuasions (following the example of Roger Williams, who founded Rhode Island in 1636 on the same principle). Brown has long since shed its Baptist affiliation, but remains dedicated to diversity and intellectual freedom.Post a Countdown Widget
