Graduate Studies

The Office of Graduate Studies Professional Development team is able to assist students in developing the skills and knowledge needed for professional and career advancement. We are able to do this by providing online resources, in-person and virtual workshops, and individual consultations for all UNL graduate students. Graduate Studies Professional Development staff members are able to provide support from the first semester of a student’s program all the way through graduation. Our programming focuses on helping students transition into careers both in and outside of academia, and making the most of their time at UNL.

We want to specifically highlight our Graduate and Professional Student Professional Development Learning modules. Through this open Canvas page, we are able to offer on-demand career and professional development resources for all graduate students and alumni. The link can be found in the Career Resource section of this page, or by visiting go.unl.edu/GradDevCanvas.
