Hello Potential Applicant to the EECS PhD Program!

We want to welcome you as you are considering applying for the doctoral program in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology! Graduate school at MIT will prepare you to become a field leader, will invite you to work on innovative teams, and ultimately, you will contribute to advancing knowledge.

We are dedicated to purposefully fostering practices of inclusive excellence, to celebrating uniqueness, and we strive to provide our students an experience where they thrive academically and professionally, and enjoy being their best selves. Each member of our department is valued, and we are delighted that you are considering becoming a part of our EECS and MIT communities.

Our Nov. 13th webinar, which discussed what makes a successful first year in a PhD program, research supervisors and senior PhD students offer viewpoints and advice, was recorded. You can now watch the closed-captioned video at this YouTube link: https://youtu.be/7GIHS7R4HCY The video will be available until December 2nd at noontime ET. We hope you find the information valuable and helpful wherever you choose for your PhD journey!
We wish you the very best as you continue your pursuit of your academic and career goals.
Sincerely, Professor Kolodziejski

We invite you to view a YouTube video featuring EECS at MIT faculty and staff (who are on the graduate admission committee) discussing the evaluation of applications to the EECS PhD program. The admission committee members offer insightful guidance on the preparation of doctoral graduate applications (for submission to MIT or to any graduate program). Here is the YouTube link: https://youtu.be/OeLGNNPZYZs. In a second YouTube video, found here https://youtu.be/yMwR_gI8v0w, we invite you to hear from current MIT EECS PhD students discussing life as a graduate student. They offer great nuggets of wisdom and advice about navigating the PhD journey. We have a third YouTube video asking the question "was the PhD worth it" and we ask a few EECS alumni of our PhD program. Check it out here https://youtu.be/br6in-H6GpI to see what they have to say!
