will the participants receive a link to the recording?

Yes

speaker is muted

oh great! thanks

how good is good? 3.0?

Does much of this still apply to law school/a law degree? I am curious as I must still apply to law schools

Will a Masters degree make someone more prepared for a PhD? I'm almost done my Bachelors, and am applying for Masters, but I don't feel ready for a PhD.

if you have a low GPA because of personal circumstances can you still apply for those programs when your dream is to do PhD research in AI, Machine Learning and neuroscience?

^

it never hurt to apply!!

Don't tell yourself no, let them make that decision

Would a patent count as a publication?

Is it better to be associated with multiple research projects, or does that look indecisive?

How are we able to get research opportunities on campus?

The Vertically Integrated Projects program is one way Irene!https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/vertically-integrated-projects/teams/

Thank you!

what should I do? I fulfilled my cinema degree requirements and I'm interested to switch to STEM. How do I get into STEM? Should I stay in school and add a major or a minor or should I graduate and take a community college STEM training since it's cheaper?

You can get research on campus by asking professors too @Irene

^^

Talk to PhD TAs too

Thank you for the suggestion! I find it hard to connect during this pandemic which is certainly an obstacle

I'm a physics/AMS major, what should I do to improve my chances of getting into engineering masters programs? what about applied math masters programs?

I was curious how I could find opportunities, as I am going to complete my undergrad next semester, and I cannot help but feel underprepared for law school

@irene lots of clubs will host research opportunities too! I’m bio so I look at biochem society or stony. Brook young investigator review

I'm definitely adding that to my list!

@irene it can also be a lot easier to approach professors if you feel more qualified to than the average student. My favorite strategies are becoming a TA or just going to office hours every week to ask questions about the class but also talk about more interesting things like research

Does having multiple schools for my undergrad count negatively towards applying to grad school? I’ve been to four different schools, one of them a community college, with some work (including research experienced interspersed).

are there specific postbac programs I can use to apply for PhD programs?

About the GRE, would you recommend taking the GRE if I am planning on applying to Computer Science Masters at Stony Brook University for Spring 2022?

What would be considered a decent GPA?

I know 3.5 and up is considered pretty good

So I have a 3.5 right now, but due to the pandemic this semester has been really hard and I’m worried about dipping below this semester. Will this significantly effect my grad school app? Do you think grad schools will take the pandemic into account?

a med school admission advisor told me their median incoming GPA is 3.5

I have to leave for class soon, where will I be able to fin this recording afterwards?

Is AY an apprenticeship?

Ah nvm

Are there stipends and such for GPA? I currently have a 3.9, and was curious if I could apply for anything to help save some money

When do I apply for these fellowships? During my undergrad (during grad school admissions)? or after grad school admit?

Is there any assistance for human trafficking victims?

Wasn't there a change to the tax code in 2017 that made attending graduate school significantly less financially attractive?

Does having a PhD and no prior work experience make you less likely to be hired in your chosen field?

About the GRE, would you recommend taking the GRE if I am planning on applying to Computer Science Masters at Stony Brook University for Spring 2022?

Does TA-ing as an undergrad promote a stronger application?

Thank you

Do these grants apply to masters programs?

Okay thank you!

if I have a newspaper article about my artwork, that I have displayed in Binghamton, would it be ok to use it when I'm applying for a PhD program in STEM like system science engineering?

"across all field of science" includes accounting as well?

oh that was another question I had: if I can apply for the GRFP before applying to grad or PhD program. thank you for answering it

Where can I start looking for GRFPs?

Congratulations Inayah!

Do you know if toxicology falls into the NIH one because its drug related?

Thank you Adit!

Congrats Inayah!

Will this video recording be available for us to review later

Thank you Noa!

susan.brennan.stonybrooke.edu? I think I missed it

Thank you

Is it hard to get into grad school later in life? I’m concerned I’ll lose my “academic work ethic” or be able to get letters of rec (specially if they require an academic one)?

@Noa, the email address was susan.brennan@stonybrook.edu I believe?

Also non traditional lol

Regarding grad school, I am going to graduate this fall, and I still have not applied to any schools, is there a time around when I should have the applications in? I am quite unsure/unprepared truthfully speaking

my goal is to heal brain injuries through AI, gaming environment and mixed reality, using art and natural scenes, so I need the neuroscience background

@Adit thanks :)

Alright, well thank you for your time!

wow I'm so excited about the possibilities. Now I need to learn how to apply the right way

^

maybe I should also learn psychology or neuropsychology classes for the AI

Thank you very much for all the information!

Thank you very much!

thank you so much!!!!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you so much for this informative session!
