We are excited to announce a collaborative professional development effort offered by OSU, the University of Oregon, Portland State University, and Oregon Health and Science University.
The Grad Student Professional Development Series is for graduate students at the four participating institutions and is intended to provide networking opportunities and training in skills beyond disciplinary knowledge that are essential for achieving career readiness and professional success post-graduation.
Each university will host one session this academic year online, and in some cases, in person as well. Graduate students from any of the host institutions may attend any of the events. All times are Pacific Standard Time.
