Six weeks from 7:00 – 10:00 pm, starting Wednesday, January 9, 2013

Disciplinary excellence is necessary for future success, but is it sufficient? Many granting agencies and professional societies now recognize that graduate students will fail to achieve their potential if they do not recognize the role of broader professional skills in their careers.  

GSR984 is designed to assist graduate students in their development of the foundational thinking skills and knowledge they will need for effective application of disciplinary excellence within societal institutions. To assist you in understanding how this 6-week course could be useful for you, we invite you to view a 6-min video in which previous students who completed the course talk about their experiences and the transformative nature of the experience.  This video, a timetable of topics, and complete course details can be found at http://www.usask.ca/gmcte/courses/gsr984

You must register for this course in PAWS. It is under Graduate Studies (GSR) courses in 2012-13 Term 2. The CRN is 27290, Thinking Critically Professional Skills for Global Citizens.  If you have any questions please contact us by e-mail - Richard Cassidy (richardmcassidy@gmail.com), John Thompson (jontom@sasktel.net), orgmcte@usask.ca.
