Future Ignited
Welcome to your future--a FUTURE Ignited!
Caltech recognizes that the diversity of background, experience, and thought is essential to achieving and maintaining scientific excellence. To that end, FUTURE Ignited is a series of events designed to support and encourage aspiring graduate students by providing the opportunity to learn more about graduate programs at Caltech and, more broadly, the graduate school admissions process.
FUTURE Ignited is for students who are interested in pursuing a PhD in the next 1-2 years. This includes rising junior or senior undergraduates and post-baccalaureate students. Students should have an interest in one of the graduate school options at Caltech.
Participants are expected to attend the Saturday, October 5th virtual event and at least one follow-up academic division event. Participants are also encouraged to attend a DEI networking event with our student clubs.
For additional support, please view the resources on writing a statement of purpose; securing strong letters of recommendation; and how graduate school funding works.
