STEM Ph.D. candidate to Government Scientist
This is my talk given on Nov 19, 2021, at the University of Mount Union at the Department of Biochemistry, Chemistry, and Physics!
I cover my Ph.D. thesis which is in the field of particle astrophysics. I also go through content from my books, and blog to help students succeed in academia, industry, and government!
I have experience in all three worlds now (academia, industry, and government) so anything I can share to help students and young professionals to navigate challenges in these fields, I am happy to!
The journey from Ph.D. candidate to government scientist is worth sharing for those who feel the same uncertainties that I used to feel when I was in graduate school. It IS possible and this is how.
Excerpt from my blog on how to finish your Ph.D. in a timely manner:
Do things that will directly translate to the contents of your thesis. And, only those things.
If you have been keeping good notes, putting your thesis together should not take more than a couple of months.
Do not put off writing.
Block off time to write every day.
Basically, if you are a good graduate student, that’s great, but also, it won’t be easy.
You will be working really hard till the last minute.
You are fully capable of getting the work done, though. That’s WHY you are a good graduate student.
So, what do you need to do to finish?
The FOUR things you need to accomplish to graduate are:
