Advising and communication are valued determinants of graduate student success.  The Graduate School provides a variety of resources for successfully advising students and more resources can be found here.

The Office of Professional Development is a great resource that provides biomedical graduate students and postdoctoral trainees with resources and opportunities in career education and professional development.  Their office has also created this resource for UMN faculty members.  To contact the Office of Professional Development you can reach out to Director Sharolyn Kawakami-Schulz at sharolyn@umn.edu or 612-625-2297.
