We are a group of PhD students studying the ocean sciences at the MIT-WHOI Joint Program (JP) in Oceanography/Applied Ocean Science and Engineering. The JP is a five-year doctoral program based at two world-class educational and research institutions: MIT, in Cambridge, MA, and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution on Cape Cod.

In our newsletter Through the Porthole, our goal is to make information about graduate school in the geosciences, and the JP in particular, more accessible to undergraduates with diverse educational backgrounds. We provide practical advice about how you can make grad school in the geosciences happen. Learn more about the newsletter here.
