Instructions: Students should complete IDP (with their advisor) by fall quarter of year two, and update it
prior to each fall quarter progress review. The IDP is designed to foster communication in a variety of areas
to ensure that the student and advisor are discussing short- and long- term goals and make efficient progress
toward earning his/her degree. Both research and training goals should be discussed, as well as the level of
effort and commitment necessary to meet these goals. Training goals are expected to evolve over time.
What are your long- and short- term career goals? What skills and competencies do you need to
develop to meet these goals, and how do you plan to do so?
Short-term goals (include a quarter by quarter timeline):
