The SCS Emigration Seminars are a series of lectures and discussion sessions that focus on "grooming" you so you'll be ready to conquer the real world when you finish your Ph.D. The interwoven threads are Jobs, Money, Career Options, Intellectual Property, The Real World, Ethics, and Communication Skills. Unlike the Immigration course, which is held during the first three weeks of the school year, the Emigration course is spread over the entire academic year. While the topics of interest are chosen with the more senior students in mind, students in the entire School of Computer Science are encouraged and welcome to attend. Faculty are welcome too.

Are you an SCS Ph.D. graduate student about to interview for a job in
academia or industry? I'd like to share with our soon-to-be or
newly-minted Ph.D.s some general tips on the interview process,
including pre-interview preparation, the visit itself and job talk,
and post-interview follow-up. I will leave ample time for discussion
and questions.
