Call for Members: Graduate Student Advisory Committee

All graduate students in research-stream and professional programs are invited to apply for a role on the Graduate Student Advisory Committee, a new initiative established by the Dean of SGS, Joshua Barker.

To provide advice and recommendations to the Dean of the School of Graduate Studies on University-wide graduate student matters, including those related to academic programs, student experiences, student support, graduate student professionalization, graduate research, and any other matters that the Dean may bring to the committee for input.

Members may also discuss and/or recommend to the Dean new initiatives and improvements to current practice in graduate education, graduate research, and the graduate student experience at the University of Toronto.

SGS is seeking membership from a broad graduate student population that includes students from all three campuses, all divisions, and both master’s and doctoral programs, as well as students from underrepresented groups.

Interested in applying?
