| Doctoral
Tutorial Session |
|
The 'Doctoral
Tutorial Session' was held in conjunction with the GRC
short courses.
The session was split into two
main sections:
Section (1) Beginning the journey
through graduate school as an IEer
for 1st through 2nd year graduate students interested
in general grad school
topics
Graduate students currently enrolled in IE programs
will provide an overview of what is expected from you
through your journey as a Masters/PhD student in the
field of IE. Get some advice from the elders - how to
balance your time, what's involved in generating a proposal/thesis/papers
& taking your Qualifying exams. Get answers to your
questions! This section will focus on discussion between
the audience and panelists, who will entertain any questions/
comments you may have (Q&A session)
Section
(2) Presentation practice with constructive feedback
for graduate students
wanting feedback on proposals or research plans
If you have a draft proposal or initial research plan,
this session will allow you to get feedback from a panel
of ISIE members. Students can sign up for the opportunity
to informally present (10-15 min. presentations) their
research in a nonstressful and casual environment to
a small panel of ISIE members who have a background
in the student's field of interest. This is a great
opportunity to receive feedback on your current research
and formulate future goals!!!
