Graduate Student Assembly
The Graduate Student Assembly, serving as the voice of graduate students at the UMASS Boston campus, is dedicated to enhancing the academic and professional development of graduate students. This includes support for graduate research and skill development. Our intention is to reach the graduate student body with the various programs we offer.
ATTENTION ALL GRADUATE STUDENTS:
The Graduate Student Assembly is joining SAgroups! The Recognized Professional Association application process will be done online. We should be up and running on SAgroups by the end of the first day of classes. Each RPA will receive their own webpage and budget information. Furthermore, all graduate students will haev access to the GSA forms and applications via SAgroups and our webpage.
