A MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT SHELDON M. SCHUSTER, PHD Welcome to Keck Graduate Institute! By every measure, Keck Graduate Institute (KGI) is in a league of its own. Our faculty is world class. Our students are poised to become international leaders in their fields. Our programs are literally without peer - we remain, nearly two decades after our founding, the only professional graduate school dedicated to education and research in the life sciences. Yet, what truly distinguishes KGI is a relentless focus on impact: a commitment to scientific innovation capable of strengthening communities and improving lives. With their native talent and the training they receive here, KGI students and alumni work at the intersection of science and business to harness such transformative possibilities as engineering solutions to global health challenges, bringing breakthrough drugs to market, and innovating approaches to reaching the underserved. At KGI, we leverage strategic thinking to expand our capacity for visionary change. Our unique programs blaze an extraordinary trail. Students in our signature Master of Business and Science (MBS) program develop the tools they will need to take discoveries from the laboratory to the marketplace, integrating bioengineering with management, finance, and bioethics. Our innovative School of Pharmacy gives students a platform for active learning through hands-on, team-based classes and key access to industry stakeholders. KGI PhD candidates hone their expertise in research areas relevant to applied bioscience, empowering them to advance exciting new applications with broad social benefit. Our Postbaccalaureate Premedical Certificate program (PPC) continues to solidify its exceptional track record for graduate placement: 81 percent of students completing the PPC gained admission to at least one medical school in the last year. Scientists and engineers in our Postdoctoral Professional Master's (PPM) program acquire the necessary business and management skills to pursue senior leadership positions within the life science industry or to launch entrepreneurial ventures geared toward commercializing new technologies. Through a new Master of Engineering Program (MEng) program that begin in Fall 2016, students deepen their understanding of molecular biology, biotechnology, and chemistry and how these subjects can be combined with creative, application-centered engineering. Also in Fall 2016, we announced two important developments that signal the growth and success of KGI. The campus housing project was approved by the Claremont Architectural Commission and we expect the housing to open in Fall 2018. We also announced that an Amgen gift of $1.5 million will fund a Master of Science in Human Genetics and Genetic Counseling program that will enroll its first students in the 2018-2019 academic year. The Masters of Science in Translational Medicine (MSTM, a joint program with the City of Hope), Masters of Science in Applied Life Sciences (MS) Clinical Research emphasis, and the Post-Baccalaureate Pre-Physician Assistant (PPA) program will also launch in the Fall of 2018. We invite you to visit KGI and explore how our innovative institution might be the perfect match for you. Sheldon M. Schuster, PhD RIGGS SCHOOL | 7 II. INTRODUCTION A.

  • Section 9. Self-Management, Health
    8-9 Self-Management, Health & Balance Values and Directions What Is Self-Management, Health, and Balance and Why Is It Important? Graduate school demands a great deal from us. We stretch our minds exploring vast territories of knowledge, we push ourselves physically in managing responsibilities to our academic work, our jobs, and our families and communities. We never get enough sleep or rest… we neglect friends, family, and health… we are distracted by social media… we have too much cofee, guilt, and eyestrain. To succeed and to flourish, we must ensure that we look after the sources of our motivation and energy. These sources are rooted in the strengths we build in body, mind, and spirit. And so, success demands that we know ourselves, acknowledge our strengths and limitations, seek out ways to nourish these strengths and work through our limitations, and find the resources that can help us do this. In short, finding a balanced approach to wellness lays a strong foundation for sustained work and success. Directions for Thinking About Graduate Study Skills In thinking through these questions, you are priming yourself to seek out people and resources at CGU and the Claremont Colleges to help you develop and maintain balance and well-being. Time. What habits of efective time-management do I bring with me? What are some of my challenges with managing time? How do my expectations for academic and professional development and career planning afect the way I use my time? Energy and Emotions. What lifts my spirits? What do I do that gives me energy and joy? What are some ways to continue or bring more of this into my work and life as a graduate student? Health and Abilities.
