University Graduate Student Orientation

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. The orientation 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.
