Dr. @Alli it seem like there is time for you to start bragging to us:) Congrats! Ill tell you the only "secret" I've learned in school: never miss an opportunity to celebrate, and well there aren't a lot of better opportunities for such:)
 
And you are the group I’m happiest to share the news and celebrate!

Yours sounds way more daunting than mine was! I think the proposal defense was even more nerve wracking than the final. By the time you get to the final, you own it! So what is your exact area?

What was your dissertation on? I'm hoping my proposal goes without a hitch --- I was fairly lucky at my oral and written exams to advance to candidacy: I happened to be presenting a paper at a conference the week after the exams, and my committee allowed me to just use the time to practice my presentation 😅.
Officially, my degree falls under the broad category of "computer science" with a concentration in databases, data mining, and machine learning, but my work has more specifically touched programming languages and compilers for programmable chemistry, embedded systems, and applied bayesian and NLP techniques for bioinformatics.

Sounds way out of my league, but of interest to a bunch of people here in the forums. My degree is Instructional Design and Technology, and the title of my dissertation is Parent Engagement, Distance Learning, and Covid: A Phenomenological Study.
