Graduate Student Life

 

Graduate students participate in rigorous academic programs and experiential activities that contribute to a holistic and inclusive educational experience.

Graduate Student Life at SEAS

From their first day on campus to the Class Day and Graduation celebrations, Graduate students participate in breakthrough research, social events encouraging interpersonal relationships with peers and alumni, educational opportunities to learn from esteemed faculty,  and professional development initiatives to prepare students for careers after graduation.

Columbia Engineering Graduate students can become involved through the Engineering Graduate Student Council, student organizations, and departmental programming.

 

 

The Graduate Student Life team strives to build a vibrant student community that will provide Columbia Engineering graduate students with a phenomenal experience. To achieve this goal, we work closely with our student body to create events and programs that students desire out of their experience at Columbia. Student feedback and insights are, therefore, integral to the graduate student experience at SEAS!
