Abstract

Ph.D. program attrition rates in the United States have been found to range from 30-50 percent. Difficulty navigating the dissertation process to completion is one factor that has been attributed to this attrition rate. This Fireside Chat will bring together current and recently graduated doctoral students to share their personal experiences across the dissertation process, bring visibility to a range of factors influencing dissertation work, and offer practical advice to fellow graduate students. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask their own questions of the panelists during a Q&A segment following the panel discussion.
