Description. Do you have piles of articles to read? Do you miss getting more than a few hours of sleep a night regularly? Do you have trouble remembering the last time you spent quality time with friends or family? Managing time during graduate school can be incredibly challenging, but there are ways to better balance the scales. In this workshop, attendees will learn how to better manage their time, leaving with suggestions, resources, and a plan for putting their own balancing system in place.

Learning outcomes: As a result of this workshop, participants will be able to:

1. Identify barriers to effective time management

2. Identify strategies to better manage your time

3. Create a plan for how to better manage your time
