Orientation

New Graduate Student Orientation

The New 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 New Graduate Student Orientation provides a broad overview of the graduate process at the beginning of each fall and spring semester. A student who begins his/her graduate programs during the summer is expected to attend the fall orientation session. The orientation program covers the what, why and the how of graduate degree requirements; the responsible conduct in research; and other pertinent topics. Participants also have the opportunity to learn about available campus resources, campus services and traditions during break-out sessions. A new student receives information on orientation when he/she is admitted to a degree program. For further information, please contact:
