Do you have to write a prospectus or qualifying exam proposal in the sciences in the next year? In this workshop, we will cover the structure and content these project proposals, as well as writing tips and resources. After that, Yale PhD students who have successfully defended their prospectuses will share strategies from their experiences navigating this challenging new genre, and we will conclude with an open Q&A. Our panelists will include:
• Shoham Benmelech (Biomedical Engineering)
• Sara Gelles-Watnick (Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry)
• Samantha Tracy (School of the Environment)
Intended audience: Future or current prospectus writers in STEM fields.
