I would really appreciate it if anyone currently in M.Sc.
or Phd programs in the field of plant ecology or physiology
could send me information about your department. I am interested
in grad schools in both Canada and the United States.
I am currently registered as a part-time M.Sc. student and I
would like to transfer to another school. Unfortunately, I did
not find out enough information about the department I am currently
registered in and that has lead to near disaster! I feel that it
is very important to talk to grad students registered in a specific
department in order to gain insight that might not be provided in
a campus tour or departmental brochure.
I would be grateful if you would provide an overall opinion
of departmental facilities, financial compensation (teaching
assistantships, stipends, etc.), faculty supervisors (academic
qualifications *AND* personality) and student life in general
(recreational activities, etc.).
Please reply by e-mail (to ensure privacy) with the
subject: For Maria as I am posting from my boyfriend's
account. It would be great if you could provide
information regarding the application procedure (such as
a school address) with your reply.
I will be happy to provide information about my
department to anyone interested.
Maria
