You didn't talk about the money; ahh!
Congratulation. I admire you
Thank you so much 😀
But you know the value of the Canadian dollars is different from the US dollars. So the food you ordered may eventually have about the same value if a currency conversion is made.
No it wasn’t. I was paying with my US card, so I was being charged in US dollar.
Research is not that easy 😂. Thanks for the reminder.
It is fun sometimes.
Oh, thanks for sharing about fellowships for travel grants.
You’re welcome
While I know it's important to attend conferences as a PhD student, id like to know if it's easy to be given days off for this when you're also a graduate assistant.
You definitely get days off to attend conferences. Just talk to your boss about it.
A really compelling Statement of Purpose!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Amen! Congrats! On the PhD journey, I've been a nurse for 25 years, now a nurse practitioner, and am currently pursuing a Ph.D. 56 years is the new 30, and investing in the future of nursing and patients is my priority. I do not want to lose the knowledge, skills, and experiences I've acquired to the grave; I prefer to share them.
Wow, you are an inspiration! Thank you for your passion and dedication. Your experience will be such a valuable asset.
Did you ever consider just going into academia full time? Or you don't think you are cut out for a lifetime of research?
I love to do research but not in academic settings. As a PhD holder, I can do research in so many places including industry. I think I talked about this in my video posted before this one.
@@UnikJane Yeah, I just checked it out after this one😂
Thats awesome!
A video to announce that I have arrived 😂😂. Informative
You arrived where?
Wow! This is insightful! Thank you
You're so welcome!
Your Dad sound like my Dad (…in future)
I guess fathers just like to boast when their kids do good. 😂😂
Congratulations Dr Jane. Its not easy at all. Its worth to be respected dear.
Thank you, it was quite a journey!
I agree, perfection is attainable and should always be the mindset but finishing is much much more important. It’s one hard lesson I learned
Thanks for sharing.
@Jane, will like to connect
Follow me on instagram @UnikJane_
She’s in my domain. Catalysis and adsorption
Really? Thats great! Nice to meet you.
Please i need a video on how to apply for grant for conferences.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will add it to my list. Please keep an eye for it.
Congratulations girllllllll….can you please suggest how to find conference ps to attend as a PhD chemical engineering student
Thank you! I just answered this question on your other comment. 🤗
You’re truly inspiring , are there any communities or fellowships you’d recommend for 1st and 2nd year PhD chemical engineering students
Thank you. We have AIChE, ACS, NOBCChE, and others that are research specific. So just search for organizations in your research field. Some of these organizations have fellowships, but a good place to start for fellowship is your school.
I pray to be in US soon for my PhD... Congratulations Dr. It's not an easy feat...
May God answer your prayer. Thank you 🙏🏽
Am a secondary student can i get scholarship
@@Eberechi-d1v Yes you can. Look for educationUSA Abuja or Lagos and become a member. They will provide you useful guidelines for secondary school students.
Congratulations 🎉
Thank you ☺️
Dr Jane, thank you for these series and your consistency. It’s obvious you have found a great niche, please don’t relent because I can’t wait to share my testimony soon.
Awwwh this comment just made me smile so big. Thank you so much. I will keep doing my best to be consistent. A new video will be dropping this weekend. All the best with your endeavors. I look forward to hearing your testimony! 🤗
Hey Dr, please dont forget to make the video on how to ace exams. Thanks in advance
Hi dear, yes that is my next video. It will be posted this weekend. Please turn on the notification bell.
@@UnikJane ok Dr
@@UnikJanealso, what are the rules on using ai/chatgpt? I see some PHD students sharing best practices. Also, I'm doing my masters and have noticed my school has relaxed a bit on using turnitin and chatgtp. The new era of knowledge is going to be fascinating on how best to use technology rather than fighting it.
I applied for a phd. Your video just inspired me. Thank you Nneoma.
You’re welcome and I wish you the very best with your application!
Congratulations, Dr. Jane. you are a motivation, I'm certain you will be a good mentor for your mentee, i wish i one 😊
Thank you for the compliment 😊🙏🏽
So no hugging in professional settings in the US? Here in South Africa, we hug everywhere😂. If i meet you in a conference i will hug you oooo.
Hahahha, thats the beauty of different cultures. I hope to visit South Africa! 🥰
Good to see a fellow Nigerian with a PhD in Chemical Engineering with specialty in Heterogenous Catalysis. Algorithm suggested this video. 💪🏽🇳🇬
I am so glad you found me! Are you still in the catalysis field?
Oh, no, I moved to semiconductor manufacturing where I apply my Chem Eng skills to optimize silicon wafer processing (thin films, diffusion, and annealing).
Okay thats cool! When I was interviewing before my graduation, I did get an invite from a semiconductor company but I wasn’t ready to leave catalysis. 😀Maybe I will consider it in the future.
Congratulations doc😂😅😊. Very interesting. I wonder if there are similar benefits to doing PhD in other countries, like Nigeria
You’re very welcome! And I’m pretty sure there are similar benefits in Nigeria!
Going for masters that’s it
Hahhahaha, why does this comment sound as if someone is forcing you to do a PhD. 😂
Nice video Dr. Jane. I have a quick question. I am a 300 level mechanical engineering student in Nigeria and I have in mind to do my masters in the United States, GOD willing, I would also like to work over there after concluding my program, in lieu of this , do I need to be COREN certified before leaving Nigeria, or can I just join ASME ( American Society of Mechanical Engineers) after my arrival in the U.S? Thank you.
It's amazing that you are thinking this far ahead in your career journey! I have never heard of these certifications being a requirement. I didn’t do any of them.
Alright, thank you Dr. Jane.
You’re welcome
1:05 - I'm just seeing the channel. you're at 19.3K subscribers 👍
Yes! 😭😭😭
I have felt like I'm not too smart, and that has got in the way of me pursuing a PhD. That was until I read a discussion on Quora where someone said PhD is not a measure of smartness, but instead a measure of resilience. I haven't even begun my masters degree, but I feel positive about going for a PhD after my second cycle of studies.
You should never feel that way about yourself. You are as smart as you see yourself. Yes, PhD requires resilience and is not a measure of smartness. I hope you end up pursuing a PhD. 🤗
@@UnikJane Thank you.
You’re welcome
Congratulations Dr. Jane. Super proud of you! I’m on this journey too 🎉
Thank you so much! You got this! I wish you the very best in your journey. It will end in praise. 🎉
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! I have a quick question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Did you get lost and found yourself under this video?
no audio
😳😳 Maybe the audio on your device is muted. Please double check.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about PhD! Love it!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Nigerian parents do too much 😂😂😂
The very most!! 😂😂
Jane, one surprising thing I found is that people without phds are actually contributing in major roles in all of these national labs. I thought only phds will be there.
Hahhaha yeah. Not everyone is a PhD. It depends on the group and the role requirements.
Hello Dr. Jane, you are doing a great work. I am Emmanuel doing my Erasmus masters in Chemical engineering here in Europe. Can you recommend for me US phd opportunities i can apply to
Hi, well done on your Erasmus masters, thats an amazing accomplishment. For PhD in the US, I have a couple of videos on my channel on how to go about it. Please check them out.
You have just gained a subscriber! I love your smile!
Awwh thank you so much! This has to be the best compliment ever. 🥰🥰
Dr. Unik. Congratulations 🎊🎉. and thanks for sharing the benefits of a PhD. Would you say that in terms of monetization, a PhD is worth it?
In terms of monetization, PhD is a degree that will pay you later. What this means is that, while you are doing a PhD, your mates with undergraduate degree or masters will be earning wayyyyyy more than you. But when you eventually get the PhD, you can land yourself a job that will pay higher. Its just a matter of finding the right job.
@ Thanks Jane.
You’re welcome ☺️
I am considering a PhD and your videos have been helpful in letting me know what I am getting myself into😆
I'm glad my videos are helpful! Good luck with your decision.
Dr. Jane, Thanks for sharing this. What was PhD in Chemical Engineering like in University of Rochester? I have applied for Fall 2025 admission and am currently awaiting admission decision.
Congratulations on your application and I pray it comes out successful. The experience is what I am sharing in these video series 😀
Anytime I watched your video you make love PHD ❣
Hahaha thats good.
😂😂😂 Obviously your dad would do that. He would introduce himself as a father of a Doctor 😅😅 My dad would do the same too 😂😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂 I probably would do the same if it was my child. 😂
That's right,I would do the same when my daughter gets a PhD
The first two things you mentioned are not benefits of pursuing and obtaining a PHD. Rather, they are the core constituents of a PHD. It's like saying the advantage of eating is that I put food in my mouth. Well, eating is putting food in your mouth, just like a doctorate is making an original and significant contribution to knowledge in a field.
Your comment is one of the reasons why I like to hear from people. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. My only question is, who says that the ‘core constituents’ of a thing can’t be considered a benefit of that thing?
@UnikJane My sister, your position that the core constituent of a thing can also be an advantage of that thing is logically correct. But not everything that is logical is sensible, just like there's a difference between smartness and wisdom.
Hahhaaha. We are just seeing it from different angles and thats okay.
Congratulations, Dr. Unik. Your language is so refined that it's hard to label you Nigerian or even West African.
Oh wow. This is the first time that I am hearing something like this. How then do I sound? 😭
With all her videos, I've been looking for this comment🤞🏾 She doesn't sound Nigerian at all. The first time I heard her accent, I was so convinced she's French- speaking. 😅
True, she's another accent different from Nigerian
I could have guessed Nigerian or Ghanaian accent perhaps because I'm not West African and can pick up any hint of West African fast. For example, she pronounces expert as "espert" which sounds more Nigerian according to me from Southern Africa.
@theladyengineer I'm South African, married to a Ghanaian and have a Nigerian bestie. I couldn't pick it up, but that's the beauty of it all. Diversity at it's best🥰
Thanks for the content.. I applied to university of Rochester for fall 2025 phd. When does the university release admission decision? Are all phd applicants subjected to interviews? Thank you
Usually comes out in January/febuary. Interview depends on the program. I wish you the very best!
@@UnikJane Thank you. I'm profoundly humbled!
You’re welcome
Your stories are always inspirational. Starting from when you got an offer from Dangote refinery to how you applied for admission in three schools in the U.S and you got one fully funded. I'm always happy watching your videos on how your stories have been. Greater heights in Jesus Mighty Name.... I want to tell you that you're positively impacting lives. Cheers!!! Segun.
Oh wow, this shows you have been watching. Thank you! Amen to your prayers and I pray for more for you.
@@UnikJane Amen and Amen to me.
🙏🏽🙏🏽
