Why UW-MadisonAlumni
   
  A UNIVERSITY AND GRADUATE PROGRAM WITH A COMMITMENT TO STUDENTS:
  • UW consistently in top rankings of number of PhD graduates and has many students, 1/4-1/3 of whom are graduate or professional students (a remarkably high proportion especially for a public university). There is a strong focus on graduate students: their training, their research, their development as scientific colleagues, and their career development.
  • MDTP exists because of graduate students, and functions only with the active participation and contribution of graduate students as well as faculty and staff.
  • Competitive stipend, tuition coverage, and benefits.
  • Weekly student seminar series in which you and your colleagues present your own research findings, and a student, postdoc, or faculty member can keep abreast of work in her/his own research area, learn about other research areas, and recognize important features (information, approaches, techniques) shared among different areas.
  • Outside seminar speakers chosen, invited, and hosted by graduate students.
