​Sunday, 28th September | 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM EST | 9:00 PM – 10:30 PM PKT

​At DreamBridge.ai, we help international students navigate the U.S. journey, from admissions and visas to career success. As part of our mission, we’re bringing you stories from those who’ve done it.

​Pursuing a PhD in the Humanities is often driven by passion, but how do you balance that with career outcomes, financial ROI, and long-term opportunities?

​Join Ilsa Abdul Razzak, PhD Candidate in History at the University of Washington, as she shares her journey through graduate school, the realities of academic career paths, and how to think strategically about a PhD in the social sciences.

​This session will also cover SOP writing tips, ways to position your application, and insights into how a humanities PhD can open doors both inside and outside academia.

​Who this is for:

• ​Students considering a PhD in the humanities or social sciences.

• ​Applicants seeking guidance on SOP writing and positioning their profiles.

• ​International students curious about career paths inside and outside academia.

​The webinar will be followed by a Q&A round where participants will have the chance to ask Ilsa personalized questions.
