About FFP
The Future Faculty Professional Symposium series will provide you with an opportunity to build community and collegiality with peers at other institutions that will continue through graduate school and beyond.

The series will introduce those in the midst of course work as well as those in the later stages of the graduate school journey to faculty members and industry professionals who will share their expertise and personal perspectives on the wide spectrum of the graduate school experience and the transition into careers.  

Topics By Day
All webinars will be repeated twice a day, and presenters will be on-line to answer questions.  The week’s agenda will be:

Monday, July 27, 2009 - “How to Succeed in Graduate School: Understanding the Graduate School Lingo”
