‘Is a PhD for Me? Nurses Leading Research, Education and Innovation after the PhD’

In celebration of 15 years of PhD graduates from the WSU College of Nursing, this interactive virtual session will explore what it means to pursue a PhD in Nursing — and where it can take you. Moderated by Dr. Marian Wilson, the discussion will feature WSU PhD program founding director Dr. Ruth Bindler and alumni: Dr. Elizabeth Schenk, and Dr. Tullamora Landis. Listen as they share their experiences and insights on applying research, education, and leadership skills in their post-PhD careers.

Participants will learn about diverse career pathways for nurses and health science professionals and have the opportunity to ask questions about how the PhD journey can align with their professional goals.

Tuesday, Nov. 18, noon–1 p.m. PT
