Peer Advising Program

consists of female graduate students a few years into their studies who have agreed to act as informal advisors and resources for first year graduate students. These women can assist you with many of your questions regarding JHU, WSE, your department or Baltimore. They are also there to share their experiences and to help you navigate your chosen education path.

Department chairs and administrator information is also included below. While you will likely get to know the people in your own department, this information could be helpful when dealing with other departments, especially if you are co-advised in your research.

Female faculty members and research scientists serve as role models for all female graduate students, regardless of their department. We hope that you find the list of female faculty helpful and that you seek out their help, advice, or support whenever you need it.

All phone numbers in 6-xxxx format have the expanded format 410-516-xxxx.
