The University of Illinois Springfield will hold a virtual Graduate School Week Sept. 25-29. The week will give students who are thinking about earning a master’s degree a chance to learn more about UIS’ 44 graduate programs of study.

“The week provides an ideal chance for aspiring students seeking to further their education, acquire additional skills for career growth or explore career transitions,” said Kathryn Kleeman, UIS director of admission.

Each 20 to 30-minute webinar will connect prospective students with program faculty, admission counselors and assistantship representatives. Attendees will learn about the application process, program learning objectives, alumni success stories and paid assistantship and internship opportunities with tuition waivers.

Those interested can register for this free opportunity to learn about programs. Even if calendar conflicts arise, registrants will receive a recording of the session.
