Dear Graduate Student,
On Thursday, May 26 at 4pm in Padelford C-36
you are invited to attend:
Session #2: How to Apply for a Job (and When to
Start Thinking About It)
So there you have it---after a year or two of
hard work---a shiny new theorem, freshly written
up in your dissertation, final exam passed, all
committee member signatures obtained.? What to do
next?? It is important to think about that
question now!
The Professional Development Session will consist
of a panel of graduating students, postdocs, and
professors who can share their experiences with
the job application process and advice on how and
when to start.? There will be ample opportunity
for Q&A.
ALL graduate students in the math department are
welcome to attend, whether you are just finishing
your first year or whether you are planning on
graduating in the next two years.
Cheers!
Matthew Badger
Dear Graduate Student,
On Thursday, October 21 at 4pm in Padelford
C-36 you are invited to attend:
Session #1: Travel: Conferences, Summer Schools
and Visiting Quarters
Academic travel is an important piece in the
life of a mathematician. It is how we stay current
on research trends, share our own ideas and
results with others, find new collaborators to
work with, and maintain relationships with fellow
mathematicians world wide. For graduate students,
this is a vital opportunity to meet other graduate
students in your specialty, who will become your
future peers, as well as researchers at other
institutions, who will be able to write you
recommendation letters when you apply for jobs.
The Professional Development Session will
consist of a panel of (2nd -- 6th year) graduate
students and professors. We will share our
experiences traveling outside UW, and explain how
to get funding to go to conferences, summer
schools and visiting quarters at other
institutions. There will be ample opportunity for
Q&A.
PIZZA will be provided for everyone in
attendance.
As a final note, ALL graduate students in the
math department are welcome to attend, whether you
are currently barraged with weekly homework (1st
year) or have forgotten what a homework assignment
looks like (4th year +).
Cheers!
Matthew Badger
