Design Your Degree (Master's and PhD)

Your time in your graduate program can go by quickly, so it’s important to start thinking about what you hope to take away from your time in graduate school and how you will achieve your academic milestones within the timelines of your degree.  

In this interactive workshop, you’ll have an opportunity to review your academic milestones, consider where your degree could take you, and think about academia and non-academic opportunities available to you in order to design your degree so that it's uniquely tailored to you. This workshop is based on the principles of Design Thinking from the book Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett and Dave Evans. 

This event is part of the GRADnavigate workshop series.

Registration is required.
