In this workshop, we will discuss non-technical skills that are critical for a successful Ph.D. journey and professional career. Topics will focus on personal and interpersonal skills, including how to give and receive feedback effectively and build a positive relationship with your advisors. We will showcase how these skills can be used to address real scenarios/challenges encountered during the Ph.D. journey. In addition to providing resources and guidance and how to use these skills, the workshop will also include a practical and experiential learning component, where students will have an opportunity to practice specific skills. 

Please note that you need to register in advance using this form. Attendance will cap at 50 participants.
