Surviving and Thriving in Higher Education

Overview: This YouTube Channel is an online resource for graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and junior scientists to navigate their path and learn from the experiences of others. Faculty members and scientists in the fields of chemistry and chemical engineering are invited to share their tips on developing a successful career. We have presentations on 3 categories: technical skills, soft skills, and health in higher education. This channel is a tool for training and mentoring scientists. Mission: Students in higher education are trained in science, however many skills that are required to have a successful career in science are not taught or learned. In graduate studies, students face so many surprises and struggles that simply can be avoided or managed better. We want to help by providing online mentorship through our videos. Students can use this Channel as a complimentary tool to learn from world-leading scientists whom they might never get a chance to meet directly.
