Headwind and Drag - Forces That Impede The Grad Student is coming at 02/17/2020 - 4:00pm
Linus Pauling Science Center 125 Mon, 02/17/2020 - 4:00pm Jed Irvine Senior Faculty Research Assistant , School of EECS, Oregon State University Abstract: A grad student knows how challenging the academic aspects of their work can be. There also can be challenges in two other areas that can slow progress: issues around the collaboration dynamics with the adviser and student work habit issues. These challenges are not always visible - these I refer to as "headwind" - an invisible force that slows you down. Some challenges are visible, but the student may be unable to realize that the problem may have a solution (more headwind), or perhaps they see a path towards a solution, but are unable to work towards it. I call the latter case "drag" - thoughts or feelings that arise in the student that work to slow them down. In this talk, I will give examples of headwind and drag and offer techniques to overcome them. Bio: Read more: http://eecs.oregonstate.edu/colloquium/headwind-and-drag-forces-impede-g...
