Grad Minds Webinar Series Session 2 – How Feeling Like An Imposter Impacts Your Learning
Have you ever felt like you do not belong at university? Do you doubt your abilities and think that you are not smart enough? Do you ever feel like you don’t deserve to be here? These feelings are common among undergraduate and graduate students and are often referred to as “imposter syndrome”. Join Dr. Jasjit Sangha on Tuesday, October 6th where she discusses some of the common ways that impostor syndrome can manifest in an academic environment, how it can impact your learning, and strategies that can be used to strengthen self-awareness and lessen the impact of these feelings.
Date: Tuesday, October 6th @ 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM
