Peer Pathways Program for International Students
For international students who want to connect with other students and engage fully with the process of developing and enacting an IDP
The joys, needs and struggles of graduate school have a whole different flavour when experienced through the lens of an international student (or with the perspective of an international student).
To help international students navigate their graduate experience, Graduated Postdoctoral Services, in collaboration with International Students Services, invite you to participate in this special edition workshop created by myPath to help you write your own Individual Development Plan (IDP) from an international student's perspective.
Join facilitators Olawale Dudubo (PhD Dentistry) and Rodrigo Migueles-Ramirez (PhD Quantitative Life Sciences) in this reflective, motivating, strategic planning-based workshop made by international students for international students.
The program consists of 2 meetings scheduled 1 week apart.
