Professional Development Workshops

The UF Office of Graduate Minority Programs (OGMP) Professional Development Workshops enhance the University of Florida experience of students who are typically underrepresented in graduate education. This series of mentoring workshops addresses issues such as writing literature reviews, effective reading strategies, summarizing and critiquing readings or lectures, passing qualification examinations, getting manuscripts published, using professional meetings to advance one's career, and getting research grants. Each participant receives a manual with professional socialization tips informally discussed during each workshop. Workshops are generally held once a month during the regular academic year. For more information, call 352 392 6444 or e-mail ogmp@ufl.edu.
