Graduate Educational Development Series
2007-2008
The GEDS is a series of workshops throughout the year sponsored by the Graduate School to provide professional and educational development opportunities for our students.
The Graduate Educational Development Series is open to all graduate students and prospective graduate students. The sessions, offered throughout the academic year, provide resources on a variety of topics related to graduate student life and work. Graduate Assistants (graduate teaching assistants and graduate research assistants) are required to attend 2 sessions (4 hours) each semester as part of their employment. Conflicts or special requests for waivers must be approved by the Graduate Program Director and Graduate School Dean. For more information about GEDS and the Graduate School at UNF, please contact us.
