GRDSCH 200 offers an overview of the structure and organization of graduate education and focuses on helping students learn the skills to find resources, build a network, and make decisions about continuing their studies beyond the baccalaureate. This 10-week course is for UW juniors and seniors who will be reflecting on their next educational journey. Open to all majors and disciplines.

Instructor Bio: Maxine Wright (she/her) is a PhD candidate in the Sociology department at the UW. She has previously taught classes on race, health disparities, and introductory sociological concepts.
