Workshops and Events
The Graduate College and other units on campus provide many workshops, seminars, and events which supplement a student's academic training by providing specific skill-building sessions on professional and personal development. UC faculty, alumni, staff, and community partners act as topical experts and present on such topics as oral presentation, credit, budgeting, and nonacademic career development. All events are posted below and continuously updated.
Workshops are organized by pillars, which have been established by the Graduate College's Professional Development Committee. Click on each pillar to find its definition and related events.
