You are not alone in your worries. And here on our Survive Grad School Resources blog, we aim to provide a one-stop shop for all of your needs in succeeding during your time as a graduate student.

Here is an excellent resource for writing that professional resume now that you’re moving into the life of a masters student. How do you make your resume stand out from all of the other competitors?

How Students Use Technology

In today’s digital age, its hard to imagine a world where graduate school doesn’t involve video tutorials, notes taken on laptops, and emailed homework. Some classes even label in the syllabus, BYOD, or “bring your own device”. So where do students actually use technology in their lives as students?

This article, although it speaks of the Undergraduate Degree seeking students, made some interesting points about the ways that students actually want to use technology. Brought to you be Edudemic, a website that attempts to connect education and technology for the growing student population.
