IDENTIFYING A GRADUATE ADVISOR
Questions for Potential Advisors
BY PAOLA V. FIGUEROA-DELGADO
Advice: Take some time to think about what is important and valuable to you (personal and professional) and let those guide the questions you should ask, as it will serve to inform what your experience will be in their lab short- and long-term.
Disclosure: These are questions I asked potential advisers who I was interested in working with for my PhD because their research was very interesting to me. Thus, why these questions are framed to address information outside of research topic.... Advisor Specific Questions ...
