About Academic Residencies
Walden University academic residencies help prepare students to be scholar-practitioners, connecting them with individual faculty mentors, student support staff, hundreds of peers who share common interests, and tools that enhance writing, research and critical thinking skills.

Conducted nearly every month at a university, conference center or hotel in the United States and abroad, Walden’s academic residencies provide doctoral students and some master’s degree students with insights into earning and applying their degrees.

The academic residencies provide a lively learning atmosphere combined with seminars, networking and travel.

Walden will host a four-day Ph.D. residency
and a four-day D.B.A. residency in
Seattle, Nov. 18 to 22, 2009.
