The purpose of this professional development workshop (PDW) is to provide advice and information on how to navigate the PhD Admissions process, with a specific emphasis on: 1) The Keys to a Successful Application, 2) Defining Your Research Interests, and 3) Finding Your Fit with PhD Programs. 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 three-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 the PhD admissions process as well as a network of both peers and faculty to help them further navigate the process.
