Welcome Visitor
Not getting a good night’s rest? Built to help participants better understand the role of sleep, this presentation equips listeners with powerful sleep tips and knowledge to help them make the most of a good night’s sleep.




After doing your research, you can waste hours getting your citations into the proper format, in the correct order in your paper, and listed in your bibliography. Zotero is a free citation management program that can help you collect, organize, and share your research. This session is designed to help graduate students get started with Zotero. Attendees will learn how to set up Zotero, gather citations, and generate bibliographies.




Scite.ai is a new research tool that uses machine learning to make your literature searching more effective. Scite.ai’s database uses machine learning to determine how citations relate to each other (are they supporting, are they contrasting, etc.) and its AI assistant can answer questions using information from real articles. This workshop will cover what Scite.ai is, how to access Purdue’s subscription, and how to use it effectively and responsibly.




This presentation will describe the fundamentals of writing a professional and compelling cover letter. Attendees will get an overview of writing letters for academic as well as industry and nonprofit positions. There will be time at the end for audience questions.




This interactive workshop will examine the academic job market and common experiences of the on campus interview processes. Participants will gain experience answering faculty, administrator, and student-posed questions that commonly occur in on-campus job interview scenarios.




Good debt (yes, that exists!) and bad; learn strategies to reduce and eliminate debt.




This interactive workshop introduces the principles and practices of student-centered teaching. This session offers a supportive space to explore how shifting the focus from instructor-led to learner-driven approaches can enhance student engagement and learning. Through discussion and hands-on activities, attendees will gain practical tools to design engaging, learner-focused educational experiences.




First Time Home Buyer - The basics for financial preparation to purchase a home and expert help about financing with a mortgage.




New and experienced graduate students are encouraged to attend this webinar to learn how to search for fellowship opportunities. Strategies for preparation and online resources will also be presented to help students get started with their writing.




Learn the benefits of recognizing emotion, practicing self-compassion and being in the moment. This presentation relates mindfulness to everyday activities such as relationships, thoughts, and stress to help you learn how the skill of being mindful can help you relax and take back the present moment.




Interpersonal violence is a complex problem that has directly or indirectly impacted everyone at some point. This workshop is designed to increase students understanding of how power and control dynamics influence interpersonal violence and the barriers in breaking the patterns of violent behaviors within relationships.




With the proliferation of AI tools, graduate students often ask themselves how these tools can be ethically used to bolster their research. ChatGPT has gained traction, but its utility is constrained by issues like outdated information, artificial hallucinations, and limited access to scholarly publications hidden behind a paywall. Fortunately, new AI tools have been developed that promote academic exploration and discovery, such as offering generative article summaries, citation chaining, and thematic literature mapping capabilities. This workshop will explore three AI tools—Perplexity, Research Rabbit, and Inciteful—designed to support the research and literature review process. This session will provide a demonstration showcasing their features, ethical usage exemplars, and guidance and strategies for evaluating AI tools for research in the future.
