MEET THE INSTRUCTOR
Joseph Rios, PhD
Hi, I'm Joseph and I am the instructor of the Mastering Academic Writing course. I have held positions as a research scientist and university professor. Since graduating with my PhD, I received an early career research award for my writing productivity. To date, my research has been cited over 1,700 times in top-notch academic journals, popular media outlets (e.g., FastCompany), and international policy briefs (e.g., World Bank). The principles taught in this course are the same that helped my advisees to obtain multiple departmental research awards. I look forward to teaching you what I know.

"Completing the academic writing course from Grad Student Academy was a transformative experience for me.

I wholeheartedly recommend the course to anyone looking to excel in academic writing and publishing."

"As a first generation chicana-hispanic student, knowing the ins and outs of publishing/writing can be very overwhelming. The mentoring, modules, and worksheets provided by Joseph and his team were exceptionally helpful in uncovering some of the hidden curriculum in writing as a researcher. Being able to share tensions, vulnerabilities, and experiences in academic writing with my peers in a safe and structured environment was one of my favorite parts! I am glad to be a part of such a welcoming community and appreciative to grow as an academic writer through this experience!"
Jennifer
University of Michigan
"Before grad student academy, despite being in my doctoral program for years, I had no understanding of the publication process. This course helped me gain valuable insights into the intricacies of academic publishing. I highly recommend this course to all PhD students and postdocs who have not yet published."
