Hey Everyone!

On Thursday, September 21st your GSC is hosting a Student Retreat!!! If you are a new student, come to the Arboretum to meet other students in the department. This is a great opportunity to meet new people, discuss your research project, and learn about everything going on in SES! We will have a keynote lecture by Dr. Beverly Hale from OAC, a Coop/Careers workshop by Melissa Turner from CECS, as well as poster presentations by your fellow students! Did I mention free food and coffee?? If you are interested in presenting a poster, printing fees will be reimbursed by the GSC. If you are interested in attending and/or presenting, email [email protected] to RSVP by September 15th!

Hi all,

The GSC is planning a professional development day for July and would love to have some input from every graduate student interested in attending! This way we can ensure you have a great time and participate in activities that are actually interesting to you!
Please fill out the survey (it shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes, if that!!).

Thank you so much for your participation and help!

Hi Everyone!
We are currently looking for volunteers to contribute ideas and help run events! You can be involved as much or as little as you would like :)
If you really want to work on some of those soft skills employers love, we also have open positions!
We typically meet the first Tuesday of every month, but will probably have another meeting soon, which we will post on here.
We hope to provide some fun events all semester long and get to meet you all :)
