Grad Chats: From Plan A to Plan B: Designing Research for a Changing World
Thursday, February 16, 2023 4:30pm to 6pm
About this Event
Central Campus
What do you do when the site where you planned to do your research has a major disruption making your research infeasible? What do you do when a loved one gets sick and you need to find more time for caregiving in the last semester of your program? What do you do when you get a job—a year earlier than you anticipated—and you need to finish quickly? Have a Plan B! Come hear from current and former PhD students who have had to make changes in plans, how they negotiated the process with their committee, and where they are today.
