Interview with Dr. Patricia Campbell and Dr. Tammy Lynn Woody
Dr. Campbell is the Dean of Graduate Studies at American Public University.
Dr. Woody is the Director of Continuous Education Program Improvement at American Public University.
Graduate students should walk away with a little more than a great education after they graduate. There needs to be more preparation in regards to thinking strategically and to be able to present ideas professionally so that they are better collaborators and are more socially adept in their careers. In this podcast Dr. Campbell and Dr. Woody discuss the challenges that are present in trying to measure ethics, and how as faculty members these dispositions and behaviors should be passed on to the student. These soft skills are something that every student, in particular graduate students, should take with them into the workforce.
