Jamshed Bharucha
Jamshed Bharucha is Distinguished Fellow and Research Professor at
Dartmouth, where he is based in the Department of Psychological & Brain
Sciences and the Department of Education. He began his academic career
at Dartmouth, eventually serving as Deputy Provost and then Dean of the
Faculty of Arts & Sciences. From 2002-2011, he served as Provost &
Senior Vice President of Tufts University, and from 2011-2015, as
President of Cooper Union. His volunteer board activities include the
Board of Trustees of Vassar College and the Board of Managers of SRM
University in India. For most of his career, his research was focused on
the cognitive neuroscience of music perception. His current research is
on using advance data analytics to reveal patterns in the financing of
higher education. His principal goal is to create a new national
initiative called Education Data Science, with the objective of making
higher education policy and decision-making more evidence-based.
Bharucha received a B.A. from Vassar College in Biopsychology, an M.A.
in philosophy from Yale University, and a Ph.D. in cognitive psychology
from Harvard University. He is an avid amateur violinist, having

throughout the stages of the thesis or dissertation research and writing
or creation process. Find out when you need permission to reuse a figure
or graph, what uses you can make of data generated in your lab, and how
to determine if you have rights to reprint a journal article you
authored. We will use case studies drawn from the subject areas in which
Dartmouth offers Masters and Doctoral degrees, so will include
discussion of software and other kinds of materials. This interactive
workshop is geared towards graduate students. Bring your examples and
questions! We’ll have time for individual consultations from 1-1:30
Practice Your Poster Presentation!

PRACTICE FOR YOUR POSTER PRESENTATION FOR APRIL 4th!
Learning to present your research in three minutes is especially
important for networking at conferences and interviewing for postdoc
positions and industry jobs.
The GRAD Office is offering a workshop where graduate students present
their research to their (smart, but not expert) peers and then receive
feedback on both their explanation of their topic and their presentation
skills. At the end of the session, the group will cast their vote on the
best presenter for a prize. Please note: no computers/ no power point.
Just graduate students speaking from memory.
A light lunch will be provided.
