Most professional development programs encourage exploration of your interests and career options. But career and life decisions are inextricably connected. In this workshop, Laura Murray, PhD,  and Kate Thorpe, PhD, adapt the strategies in the best-selling book Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett and Dave Evans to your experience as a PhD student, whatever your stage or discipline, to help you begin the process of designing a satisfying, integrated, coherent life both during and after graduate school.

We’ll invite you to reflect on what you’ve learned about yourself through academic, personal, and professional experiences and to consider your goals and values as well as key questions regarding future possibilities to begin paving a path to a joyful, well-designed future.
