Virtual Open House for PhD Students

Boston University’s Professional Development and Postdoctoral Affairs is pleased to be offering a virtual open house for prospective PhD students that will be held on March 28^th and March 29^th, 2024.

The open house will provide an opportunity to learn first hand about BU PhD programs from our current PhD students and graduate faculty members. On March 28^th we kick off our program with welcome remarks from pivotal leaders within BU’s graduate education community, a presentation on professional development opportunities and resources for PhD students at BU, a presentation on graduate DEI programming and initiatives at BU, and discussion panels from both our current PhD students as well as our graduate faculty members. During the discussion panels with current PhD students and faculty members, attendees will have a chance to learn more from our panelist about their respective programs and offerings. There will also be ample opportunities for attendees to ask any questions during Q&A during the discussion panels. The virtual open house will conclude on March 29^th, which will feature some of our amazing current graduate fellowship recipients for the NSF GRFP (National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program) and the Clare Boothe Luce Graduate Fellowship.

We encourage current undergraduates (juniors and seniors), masters/professional students, and anyone who is interested in learning more about PhD programs to register for this event. Please RSVP here by Friday, March 22nd, 2024.
