Organized by the Canadian Association for Graduate Studies
Join us in this free-ranging roundtable led by some of Canada's leading graduate students and early career professionals. The transition from graduate school into the workforce can be a difficult and uncertain journey. Perhaps now more than ever, graduate students must invest significant time and energy into planning and preparing for their transition into the workforce. The speakers in this roundtable will share insight from their own personal experience as graduate students and early career professionals, and offer advice for navigating the obstacles and opportunities that confront Black, Indigenous, and racialized students as they seek to find sustainable, meaningful careers.
