Resource List - Advice for Grad Student

I’ve been wandering the net looking for useful information for grad students (particularly those who are working on their dissertation and looking forward to the job market.) So here I will start compiling the useful information and links I have found and update as needed.

If you have your own materials or have links to ones you like, feel free to share in the comments!

• Destination Dissertation by Sonja K. Foss and William Waters, excellent book–read it early and often!!

• Even a Geek Can Speak by Joey Asher, this is a great resource for learning how to communicate complicated ideas to all sorts of audiences, also it’s got great humor

• How to write a professional bio
• Lots of really good advice for grad school and beyond (Matt Might, CS-oriented)
• Job market materials (Benjamin Mako Hill)
• More job market materials (Philip Guo)
• Scholarly Pursuits by Cynthia Verba
