SoHE 1903 Graduate Research Scholars

Graduate Research Scholar (GRS) communities are organized by the various schools and colleges within UW–Madison. They offer assistance to graduate students through advising and referrals to resources and bring students together for a range of social, academic, professional development, and research-related activities.

The SoHE 1903 GRS community programming supports graduate students throughout their academic journey by fostering connection, growth, and success. Through a variety of academic and professional development opportunities—including mentoring, networking, and community-building events—students are empowered to thrive both personally and professionally. The program also offers individualized advising and direct connections to campus resources, ensuring students have the support they need every step of the way.

Eligibility

The UW-Madison GRS eligibility can be found here. SoHE builds upon this and also includes both domestic and international students as well as those whose research aligns with the SoHE 1903 initiative.
