Orientation
University Graduate Student Information Forum
The University-wide graduate student
orientation provides an introduction to and overview of the graduate
education experience at Texas A&M. Whereas many colleges
and departments hold graduate orientations to cover objectives
and items for specific programs, the University Graduate Student
Orientation provides a broad overview of the graduate process.
Students who begin their graduate programs during the summer
are expected to attend the fall orientation session. The orientation
program covers the what, why and the how of graduate degree requirements;
the proper conduct of research; and other pertinent topics. Participants
also have the opportunity to learn about available campus resources
from participating campus offices and organizations at a resource
fair held as part of the orientation. New students receive information
and registration forms for the orientation when they are admitted
to a degree program. For further information about the University
