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 virtual and open to all UConn faculty and staff. We hope you’ll join us for the upcoming session:
Best Practices in Onboarding and Graduating International Students
Spring and summer are busy times at UConn with academic departments planning their welcome activities for new students starting in fall term, while at the same time advising continuing students graduating in spring and summer term. Join presenters from ISSS and UCAELI to review the most important topics for academic departments to be aware of when welcoming new international students to UConn. We will discuss employment restrictions for graduating students and focus on resources and events to support incoming international students, ITA Screening and Microteaching Testing and provide departments with a checklist of topics to get students started for success.
Date: Thursday, April 11, 2024
Time: 11am – 12pm
Facilitators: Members of the ISSS Advising Team & Jeannie Slayton, Director of Intercultural Programs and Support/UCAELI
