Graduate Programs - OneSoHE Advanced Professional Development Seminar (ADV-PDS) Schedule
All graduate students will also receive the calendar invite with room location and/or zoom links for each scheduled event. SoHE graduate students in all graduate programs are invited and encouraged to attend these events. This seminar series is focused on professional development topics for SoHE students (across our HDFS, CSCR, DS, and CBFE programs). These sessions are on critical topics for being successful in graduate school as well as in your future careers. Students are encouraged to attend multiple sessions each year. Reporting on these sessions occurs through the Annual Review of Graduate Students each spring. During your final years of a PhD program, all students are required to attend six seminars.
