This workshop, which is jointly offered by GPS and the Office of Research Ethics (ORE), is designed to introduce graduate students to ethical issues surrounding research involving human participants, relevant to the UBC Behavioural Research Ethics Board. It includes an overview of key principles, policies and controversies in research ethics. A step-by-step guide to the application form and process will also be provided and breakout sessions will give participants the opportunity to consider ethical issues arising in their own research projects and how to address these issues in their application for behavioural research ethics review and in the conduct of their research. A separate workshop for research relevant to the UBC Clinical Research Ethics Board will be offered at a later date.

Please join us for the second of a series of informal dialogues over pizza where we explore the hearts and minds of leaders in our midst who are making a difference for good in the world. How do they define ‘good’ or ‘success’? What are the important issues of our time, and how can they be addressed? What motivates them? What have they learned about leadership?

This introductory session is designed for graduate students who know very little about Project Management but are curious about how they would use it in their present work, or in the future.

Faculty of Graduate Studies will be hosting an advisor from Student Financial Assistance and Awards office, who will be available to provide confidential one-on-one financial advising for graduate students at the Grad Studies office on Wednesday afternoons.
