Envision EEB: Graduate Program Preview Weekend

Envision EEB: Graduate Preview Weekend at Michigan State University strives to relieve disparities in access to graduate education in the biological sciences for individuals from historically excluded groups. The weekend provides prospective students with information on the graduate application process, how to apply for grants and/or fellowships to fund their graduate research (e.g., NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program and the Ford Foundation Fellowship), and an early opportunity to network with potential advisors. Participating students come from undergraduate colleges and universities around the country and have a chance to meet MSU faculty, postdocs, and current graduate students in the EEB program.

Learn more about the Envision EEB program, how to participate, and meet the EEB DEI committee on the program’s website. 

 

Envision EEB 2024 is scheduled for Friday and Saturday, Sept. 20-21, in East Lansing for a whirlwind of networking, professional development, and personal exploration. Questions can be directed to EEB's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) committee co-chairs:  Lauren Sullivan, Ben Kline, and Carol Waldmann Rosenbaum.
