2 Graduate Program: Master and PhD work before you decide to apply to grad school think of why do you want to do graduate work Think of your interests and goals: - Professional goals, dream jobs? - Research? - Teaching? - Have your own company or work for one? - What are you good at? - What do you like to do? - Are you ready for the time and energy commitment? How long of a commitment? Be realistic and focused! 2
3 Types of grad programs where you can work on probability and statistics Where housed? In Statistics departments; In Mathematics and Statistics, or Mathematical sciences departments In Mathematics departments MS and/or PhD? Do you need financial support? Is there some science area you are interested in? 3
4 Preparing your application MS program: you are expected to master the knowledge someone else developed. PhD program: you are expected to develop new knowledge. As you choose the school be realistic: apply to some of the best and some of the good. Make great GRE scores! Get known people to write you reference letters! Do not get discouraged 4
5 Once in Grad School Be prepared to: Work, work, and more work. Be independent, proactive and resourceful. Think and plan ahead. Network with as many people as you can. Get involved with school activities: clubs, Grad Students Association. Stay focused and organized. 5
6 MS or PhD thesis/dissertation Choose your advisor wisely: active in research, accomplished, well connected (you will be looking for a job some day ), has time for students. Choosing the research topic: MS usually proposed by the advisor (not necessarily new knowledge) PhD often proposed first by the advisor, but developed by the student: result is new knowledge: methods, theory, etc. Always: advisor must match the research area of your interest Always: make sure you work on a topic that is of interest to many people - Always: consider your goals after graduation when choosing the topic. 6
