Advocacy Network for Graduate Students and Postdoctoral Scholars

The Advocacy Network for Graduate Students and Postdoctoral Scholars is a team of supportive Cockrell School of Engineering faculty members who work one on one with engineering graduate students and postdocs to provide confidential assistance and advice that they may not feel comfortable getting from their advisors or within their own departments.

Students and postdocs can seek advice from the Advocacy Network members related to challenging conversations and situations in the labs, effectively communicating with advisors and PIs, accessing campus-wide resources, and much more.
