We actively involve graduate students in all departmental academic, professional, and social events alongside faculty and staff. Additional professional development opportunities include funding for national conferences and research support through technical and clerical assistance. Our program typically enrolls 40-45 M.S. and Ph.D. students, with about half being international students and nearly 60% pursuing doctoral degrees.
