Hi guys,
Thanks for the replies. To give you a better idea of my situation, I will be doing basic epidemiologic research for a professor (and a PhD candidate of hers) over the summer as part of my practicum required for my MPH. So I figured all things going smoothly that that professor should be a lock for a letter. However, I have just started communicating with my faculty advisor, who might help me with my thesis this Fall, so until then, my relationship with him might be limited.
With that being said, could my faculty advisor potentially be a second letter writer, or is that not a good idea? Also, because my professor's PhD candidate will likley have been awarded her PhD by this Spring, could she act as a letter writer (keeping in mind she would not be holding a formal academic position perhaps beyond a post-doc), or would that be innapproptiate?
Any other suggestions for finding a potential third writer in a hurry would be greatly appreicated! Thanks!
