What it’s like being a Ph.D. student – Part 2 of 3

This is the 2nd part of a 3 part series where I discuss what to consider before getting your Ph.D., what its like when working on your Ph.D., and what it was like after getting your Ph.D. and becoming a professor. I am in the instructional design field so my experiences will pertain to that degree though many other Ph.D. experiences will be very similar.

This podcast goes into what it was like as a student. What were classes like? Was I nervous? What advice could I offer a new Ph.D. student?
