We learned about the 5 W's in grade school English as an approach to writing. A hallmark of a good story meant that we answered the Who, What, Where, When and Why questions.

In this episode, I use simple 5 W questions to share advice, challenge and encourage those in STEM graduate programs.

Why are you in graduate school?

What are you willing to sacrifice?

Who are you seeking guidance and counsel?

When do you want to finish?

Where are you going upon completion?

Bonus: How are you getting it done?
