Workshop Series: Understanding U.S. Graduate Education and Preparing for the Return Home

The project consisted of a series of six workshops for graduate international students. Led by faculty and staff, the workshops were designed to help the students both better understand U.S. graduate education and better prepare for their return home.

The primary objective of the series was to supplement the institution's curricular program with information that would help students to both maximize their studies as well as connect them to their future work at home. Furthermore, they wanted to bring faculty, staff, and students together outside the classroom and outside the students' major fields of study.
