J2R is designed to support and inspire graduate students across all disciplines. It will feature over 20 activities, including workshops, roundtables, luncheons, keynote speakers and entertainment. Topics will include thesis development, professional integration, scientific popularization and more.
The event begins October 24 and ends with a writing retreat on October 26.
Register for free
Concordia grad students can register for free through the Graduate and Professional Skills (GradProSkills) program. Participation in the supplementary writing retreat requires paying a fee.
Paula Wood-Adams, dean of graduate studies, is pleased the university is covering the registration costs for these Concordians.
“Our grad students are among the best in the province. To enable them to participate in J2R reflects our commitment to furthering their academic and professional development while showcasing their research to the larger community.”
Joanne Beaudoin, administrative director at the School of Graduate Studies, agrees.
“The 2019 J2R is a great opportunity for our graduate students to mix it up with their colleagues from universities across the province,” she says.
“It’s also a fun way to practice new or recently acquired French-language skills.”
