2024 Yearly Departmental Retreat at Gault Nature Reserve
Mark your calendars: This year’s BGSA retreat will happen on the last weekend of classes - November 29th to December 1st! Please watch out for later announcements for cost & sign-up! Spots will be limited!
As per usual, this event will run over the weekend, and will include transportation, meals and accommodations. This event brings together biology graduate students from all sub-disciplines within the department -molecular biology, neuroscience, and ecology and evolution - for a weekend-long visit to the Gault Nature Reserve. The retreat provides an opportunity for graduate students to share their research, learn about others' research, and gain new skills, all while strengthening connections within the graduate community. The retreat agenda will include workshops, research speed-talks, and other cohort-strengthening activities. Professors from the Department are welcome to join to take part in the day time activities. All-in-all this event is one of the most important ones held by the BGSA, as it strengthens bonds between new and returning graduate students from across the department.
