LLED’s Graduate Peer Advisors are hired on a yearly basis to facilitate the social and academic life of the graduate students in the department. The GPAs plan apprenticeship seminars focused on preparing students for a career in academia and to support the activities of graduate work. These include trial conference presentations, comps and proposal defence practice, and research practices. They also plan many social events throughout the year, including the September new student’s orientation, film nights, and pub socials.
Every other year, LLED hosts a Graduate Student Conference. Keep an eye on the Grad Student blog for conference theme and call for papers.
