2012 Mayo Graduate School PhD Interviews

Mayo Graduate School (MGS) students are prepared and excited for the upcoming interview weekends. We have a busy schedule ahead of us with many fun-filled activities. Each interviewee will have several meetings with Mayo Clinic principal investigators to get an idea of the research at Mayo. Additionally, the investigators will evaluate if the candidate is a good fit for MGS. As students, we enjoy getting the chance to share what we like best about MGS. Representatives from the Mayo Clinic Arizona (Danielle Miranda/Patrick Blackburn), and Mayo Clinic Florida (Magda Cichon/Melissa Murray) are attending interview weekend to talk about the opportunities available at these sites. We look forward to meeting all the Mayo Graduate School candidates!

Advice for the students would be to be themselves, be open to learning about different types of research projects, and to be honest with what they would like to get out of their graduate school training.
