Are you considering graduate school?

The decision to apply and go to grad school can feel overwhelming, and many talented, qualified undergrads will put off applying until a decision is made for them.

Professors Dennis Goeckel (ECE) and Karen Skolfield (Writing in Engineering) will give some pro tips on a timeline and methodology for grad school applications and decisions.

Three big questions will be addressed: Why? Where? and How?
