About this Workshop

In our session, we look to give real life experiences to first-gen students after completing their undergraduate degree. In a small panel of professionals, we look to give students the perspective of how being first-gen is as a graduate level student, doctoral student, and even as a current professional in the field. On top of sharing our experiences at these different levels, we look to answer questions and share insight as to what waits for these students after undergrad college life.
