San Diego, CA - San Diego author Dr. Jason Karp will sign copies of his newly-released book,
"How to Survive Your PhD" at the Doubletree Hotel in San Diego's Mission Valley on Saturday,
January 30, at 6:00 p.m. as part of the San Diego State University Writers' Conference.
In graduate school, Jason Karp did almost everything the wrong way. After three qualifying exams,
two dissertation proposals, 150 pages per dissertation proposal, two universities, one
procrastinating advisor, a second advisor on the other side of the country, ten research delays,
20 trips to the psychologist, seven years, and an annoying partridge in a tree that drove him out
of his apartment when he was trying to write his dissertation, Jason learned a few things about
how to navigate and survive the PhD process. In his book, he brings that advice to graduate
students.
"How to Survive Your PhD" is a real-life, no B.S. guide through the trials and tribulations of
graduate school. It is published by Sourcebooks, Inc. and is available at booksellers nationwide
and online at AMazon.com.
