Rowman & Littlefield Education (Verlag)
978-1-61048-903-4 (ISBN)
From Student to Professor is the doorway through which readers experience graduate school life, from both sides of the lectern. This guide not only discusses how students may adjust and succeed in graduate school; it also prepares them to enter a career in academia.
Providing a broad perspective on the professoriate, Mullen offers readers a visual map of the entire graduate school experience, navigational prompts, case studies, anecdotes, glossaries, and updated resources in order to best understand vital issues that affect graduate students and professors: learning productively within groups, developing effective marketing and networking strategies, creating successful student-centered programs, and establishing digital learning relationships in the academy.
Carol A. Mullen, PhD, is professor and chair of educational leadership and cultural foundations at the University of North Carolina, Greensboro. She has won awards for excellence in teaching and research, and is an internationally known scholar in mentoring and graduate education. Mullen is the co-author of Educational Leadership at 2050: Conjectures, Challenges, and Promises and author of Climbing the Himalayas of School Leadership: The Socialization of Early Career Administrators.
