A sense of community as well as support for the development of core competencies are key to academic success and student wellbeing. Named after the successful “Connected Academics” project developed by MLA in 2019, this initiative is designed to support graduate students in the social sciences and humanities in their personal, professional, and academic growth, and to create a space for interdisciplinary reflection on their scholarly work.
For Social Sciences and Humanities
Connected Academics for social science and humanities graduate students features invited speakers from a variety of institutions, as well as the McGill community, to offer a broader perspective on topics related to professional development.
Connected Academics Exchanges
Connected Academics Exchanges are sponsored groups that meet regularly to share resources, discuss research, and create meaningful connections between graduate students. Check out the groups we are sponsoring this year.
