The Office of Student Success & Well-being works to promote a holistic and inclusive environment in which graduate students can thrive. Programs focus on many topics ranging from professional development (time management, navigating imposter syndrome) to personal well-being (nutrition, financial literacy) to community building. While all programs seek to foster a sense of inclusivity, there are also offerings focused on the specific needs and experiences of underrepresented and underserved populations including first-generation and rural students.
