In this episode of Dear Grad Student, Elana chats with recent Master's of Science in Neuroscience graduate and current research assistant, Hannah Olson (@overhannahlyze), all about her journey to and journey through her Master's degree. They talk about her research in voice-switching and interest in neuropsychology, her switching from a doctoral program to a Master's, the structure of her Master's program, her lack of science classes prior to a Neuroscience graduate degree, sending cold emails, comprehensive exams, her future career goals, and the biggest question of them all: was the Master's program worth it?
