The Graduate School’s
Spring 2024
Timely Topics Series
Timely Topics is a series of opportunities to engage with subject matter experts on topics relevant to those who support and advise graduate students and programs. Every session is available to all UConn faculty and staff. We hope you’ll join us for the upcoming session:
Embedding Career Readiness in Your Courses
Recognizing that graduate students often first connect with their faculty about career preparation, the Center for Career Development has created career readiness modules in HuskyCT for individuals to access on their own (self-paced) or to embed in courses that have professional development or career preparation components. During this Timely Topics, you will:
- View some of the components in the HuskyCT modules;
- Learn about the logistics of embedding content in your courses;
- Gain insights curated from those who have accessed and implemented the career readiness content in their courses;
- Tour through the faculty toolkit for sharing syllabi, activities, and resources;
- Contribute ideas for future module content.
Date: Thursday, March 7, 2024
Time: 1pm – 2pm
Facilitators: Kaitlyn Anderson, Career Readiness Program Designer & Kay Gruder, Associate Director for Graduate Student & Postdoc Career Services and Programs, UConn - Center for Career Development
