Time Management for the Physics Graduate Student

Physics graduate students~come from a variety of backgrounds and many~are already~accustomed to a wide variety of time constraints including working full time jobs while studying, caring for children or other family members, and valued community activities.~But graduate school~is a new experience; students face new challenges and have to work within new time constraints. In this workshop, we hope to present~and discuss~some of the time-management~strategies~that have benefited~students, and address as a group what~other ideas could~be tried. The workshop is intended to be useful to both advisors who seek to help students with time-management and also to students. We will discuss time management both in a general sense, and also time management within the study of physics (how to optimize learning).
