Grad School Femtoring: Inclusive Grad School Stories, Personal Development, and Productivity Tips for  First-Gen BIPOCs

143: What Everyone Needs to Know About Disability and Academia with Liu Miao


Listen Later

This week our special guest is Liu Miao who discusses the topic of disability and academia. Liu is a PhD student in human development and family sciences and is passionate about research on positive youth development, cross-cultural studies, immigrant youth, as well as fostering and adoption.

In this episode we discuss: How she got involved with content creation as a means of making knowledge accessible to the wider public. Her experience as someone with a physical disability attending graduate school and experiencing issues of injustice and inaccessibility. How the pandemic, Zoom education, and access to recorded lectures, in some cases has helped individuals with disabilities access education. The value and assets that disabled students bring to the table in academic spaces. And advice for disabled students who are or will be applying to graduate school.
