Join Dr. Spikes Jonathan and other authors for a conversation grounded in the authentic experiences of diverse doctoral students, Navigating Your Ph.D.: Challenges and Strategies for Thriving is an invaluable resource tailored for Ph.D. students grappling with the multifaceted aspects of graduate life.
Edited by Asia Eaton the book delivers a tapestry of narratives that embody the complexities Ph.D. students face—from negotiating work-life balance to confronting academic culture. Eaton’s insightful curation leads readers through a deeply personal yet universally relevant journey, addressing mental health, financial stability, mentoring, and the art of “managing up.”
The book is structured into two sections, with the first exploring work-school-life integration through themes such as moving away from home, navigating health and well-being challenges, and achieving financial literacy during the arduous Ph.D. undertaking.
The second section confronts the nuances of academic culture with chapters on managing the transition to different university environments, redefining educational priorities, overcoming cultural mismatches, and mastering the dynamics of mentorship.
Join the SPSSI Graduate Student Committee, Dr. Asia Eaton, and chapter authors for this one-hour book talk where they will share important insights and suggestions for graduate students to thrive in their PhD programs.
All are welcome! Please share with any prospective or current graduate students who may be interested!
