Questions to Ask the Recruiters

Here are some questions you can ask graduate school recruiters to help identify to programs you want to pursue:

  • What types of research are there?
  • What resources are available?
  • How large are the research groups?
  • How much time do you spend as a teaching assistant vs. research assistant?
  • Are there interdepartmental opportunities?
  • Are there opportunities to collaborate outside of academia?
  • What opportunities are available to develop non-technical skills, such as communication or safety?
  • How quickly do students typically move through the program?
  • What is the completion rate for students?
  • What happens to program graduates?
