Professional Development Advances

In the past year, the Graduate School has expanded the range of workshops it offers to graduate students and postdoctoral scholars, adding sessions on topics ranging from time management to writing a grant proposal to identifying transferable skills.  The goal of the effort has been twofold:  to offer more holistic support to the students and scholars we serve and to begin designing clear pathways for students to follow to reach their degrees and beyond.
