3 December 2020 -- General CS Ph.D. Information Session

My CS Ph.D. Information Session -- Hosted by UC San Diego Computer Science For answers (and links to their answers in the video are here): http://mycsphd.org/info-session/2020/... Information about other sessions (past and future) is here: http://mycsphd.org/info-sessions Questions: 0:00 Introductions 5:25 Do I need to have a master’s degree to get a Ph.D.? 6:10 How do I pay for a Ph.D.? How much does it cost? 7:37 What are some of the qualities of an ideal candidate for a PhD? Conversely, what might raise a red flag in a candidate’s application? 7:31 What’s the weight of different parts of the application (test scores, grades, letters, SOP, undergraduate research)? 12:59 Should I still apply if I don’t have any research experience? 14:08 What’s a typical day like for a Ph.D. student? 24:35 How should an undergrad get more exposure to the different research fields if we’re not sure what we want to specifically go into? 28:39 What job opportunities in industry does a PhD or Master’s in CS open and close compared to a Bachelor’s? 33:05 How do you find a topic and an advisor? 35:44 How do I know where to apply? Where might I get in? 41:59 Can female-identifying speakers talk about some of the “bro culture” present in certainly not all, but many CS areas, and how they combat it? 48:05 Please describe someone who should/should not pursue a CS PhD? Assume that they both did well in a CS undergrad program MyCSPhd.org collects information about the why and how of getting a Ph.D. in computer science and closely related disciplines. It was created by professors who advise Ph.D. students and current Ph.D. students. The information should be useful to anyone contemplating a Ph.D. at a university in the United States or Canada. It is a free service of the Computer Science Department at the University of California in San Diego, and it does not promote any particular school. Our hope is that this information will be useful in deciding whether a Ph.D. is right for you and in guiding you through the application process.
