Professional Development
A key component of what we do here at the Graduate Life Office is prepare our students for life beyond Lehigh. We work with on-campus resources to provide opportunities for students to practice their networking, communication, and job seeking skills. Read below to learn more.
Dissertation Boot Camp
The purpose of Dissertation Boot Camp is to give students uninterrupted time to work on the ultimate project that will move students from candidates to doctorates. We want our students to be well-supported in their disseration, thesis, and other important writing projects, and that is what DBC is all about.
