Filed under Graduate school blog reviews, December 4th, 2009 by Grad School Essay Specialist

The PHDs.org Engineering Science Blog is a blog especially intended for Engineering Science graduate and college students and practitioners. It is laden with news, tips, and feature articles that such an audience would find helpful and interesting.

What to look forward to when visiting PHDS

The site’s news and feature articles tackle various issues in the field of graduate studies and Engineering Science such as topics about risk aversion at the National Institute of Health (NIH). Interestingly, while it is an Engineering Science blog, there are also a number of articles for graduate school students and aspiring graduate school students in general.

There is a considerable number of articles about looking for and choosing graduate schools. One of the blog?s most interesting features that sets it apart from other blogs and websites offering the same kind of information and content is its unique mechanism for searching graduate schools based on your priorities. This mechanism helps you find the right graduate school for you. There are drop down boxes from which you could choose the type of graduate program that you?re looking for and the field or area of discipline that you wish to study. After that, you just have to click “search” and the schools offering courses in relation to your search would be listed in front of you. Should you wish to make a more customized search, you can use the third drop down box and the search results of the universities you?re looking for would be arranged according to which school offers the best program in the field of study that you chose. Fun and easy.

Areas for improvement

Besides that, the site also provides links to other websites that would be helpful to science graduate students and practitioners. The use of more pictures and videos would further improve not just the blog?s look but also the information and content that it can provide its visitors.
