How can graduate students in psychology thrive during their graduate school experience? Rather than focusing on graduate school admission or the post-graduate experience,
Your Graduate Training in Psychology provides current and incoming graduate students with a wealth of information on how to succeed in graduate school. Using a comprehensive, easy-to-follow approach and an emphasis on the development of specific skills for success, the chapter authors discuss important issues and strategies in chronological order, from the first year of graduate study (‘Settling In’) to what students need to know as they complete their program (‘Winding Down and Gearing Up’). This text is ideal for current graduate students in all areas of psychology and for undergraduate seniors planning to attend graduate school. The book would be useful in courses such as Psychology Capstone Seminar, Careers in Psychology, or a Psychology Orientation course.
