Template repository for tracking a graduate career

Graduate Career

Welcome to your graduate career!

This repository includes:

• Templates for quarterly reports
• Issue templates for tracking progress on things like getting your committee going, writing papers, etc.
• Templates for how to set up your thesis project

Your Responsibilities

You will be tasked with writing quarterly reports, tracking progress on your milestones, and using this repository as a space to continue working on your degree.

Conversations can take place here, so that there is a record. This repository will be private by default, and should be considered a safe space for collaboration and discussion.

Using this repository

You may find this repository much easier to interact with using the gh command. You can use this to create issues, for instance:

gh issue create -F issue_templates/write_paper.md -w

This would read the template, open an editor for you to modify the text, and create the issue.

Initializing the Repository

When this repo is created, Matt will run this command to start the checklist process!

gh issue create -F issue_templates/onboarding.md -t "Onboarding Checklist"
