The Way Forward: Navigating Graduate-Level Transitions
The presenters will use Nancy Schlossberg’s Transition Theory to frame their approach to discussing transitions that occur throughout graduate school and into the first professional role. The presenters will utilize personal experiences, research, and group discussion to guide the presentation while providing space for attendees to identify personal goals, expectations, and techniques for success.
