Also, throughout the year, the Division hosts a number of events that provide a wide variety of opportunities for alumni, donors and friends to actively engage with our students and be a part of their graduate education experience. These events range from career development workshops to networking events to our Grad Slam competition that showcases our students who can best present their research in 3 minutes or less.
