Thriving in Graduate School: International Student Panel
The transition to graduate school is even more complicated when it is also accompanied by a transition to a new country. In this workshop, a panel of international graduate students will answer questions and share their experiences; all students are welcome to attend, but RSVP from international students will have priority.
