PDP Workshop Sessions are part of the PDP assignment for First Year BBAs in BA 100. Students should be sure to review the PDP Canvas site and come to the PDP session with their laptop. Advisors will provide some brief overview and reminders, but the bulk of the workshop will be time for students to work on their PDP and ask advisors any questions as they work on their individualized plan. After attending a workshop, students will schedule a 1:1 advising appointment to talk through their plan with an advisor.

Please sign up here to attend Center for Campus Involvement's New Organization Orientation. This session is required for any student who wishes to start a new organization.

Please only register for a training date if you have been told to do so by our Program Manager, Brian Walker.

If you are interested in joining our team, reach out to Brian directly at walkerba@umich.edu

Generative AI tools are increasingly part of academic, research, and professional work, but using them effectively requires more than knowing how to write a prompt. GenAI Essentials is a practical workshop series designed to help graduate students and postdoctoral scholars make informed, responsible decisions about when and how to use generative AI.
Through interactive sessions and hands-on activities, participants will examine the capabilities and limitations of GenAI tools, practice strategies for using AI in writing and communication, and develop more intentional approaches to prompting and evaluating AI-generated responses.
Participants may register for one or more sessions.
By the end of the Fall 2026 series, participants will be able to:
Evaluate appropriate uses and limitations of generative AI in academic, research, and professional contexts.Identify ethical, privacy, academic integrity, and disclosure considerations that should inform GenAI use.Use GenAI strategically to support revision, feedback, and professional communication without outsourcing authorship or judgment.Develop more specific and effective prompts by identifying the characteristics, goals, and conventions of the writing they want to produce or improve.

Prioritize your work, research, and writing with dedicated quiet space, snacks, and coffee. Join us for this bi-weekly opportunity to meet other grad students and postdocs in STEM and stay ahead this semester. Each event will begin with 15 minutes to grab snacks/coffee, get settled, and set goals for the time block followed by 1.5 hours of quiet work time and conclude with partnered progress checks.

STEM equity for everyone needs everyone! WISE programming is open to all students regardless of sex, gender, or gender identity.

We want you to have all the information you need to make informed decisions about your education and your future.

Supply chains are the backbone of the global economy. While the fragility, geography, and organization of global production networks are at the forefront of supply chain discourse, the people who make and study consumers’ products are often forgotten. Women especially play a critical role in the production of goods and services and global procurement.
The Women in Supply Chains (WiSC) Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop (RIW) was created to understand these issues and create a space for graduate students interested in the intersection between gender and supply chains. WiSC researches gender disparities in supply chain scholarship and practice to advance awareness and pursue more equitable outcomes. We seek to bring together an interdisciplinary group to collaborate on topics related to our three research pillars: 1) supply chain discourse and governance, 2) supply chain gender inequities, and 3) barriers to equitable supply chain research and practice. Our interdisciplinary approach addresses the intersections of patriarchy, gender, power asymmetries, and economic exploitation in global production networks. Recent industry research shows that progress on gender representation in supply chains has stalled, demonstrating a need for sustained academic engagement (2024 Women in Supply Chain Survey Report | Gartner).
Research questions we plan to explore include:
To what extent do supply chain theory and discourse rely on or reinforce patriarchal values?What gender-based inequities and power asymmetries exist in global production networks? How can supply chain stakeholders mitigate these inequitiesWhat barriers do gender-marginalized individuals face as supply chain scholars or practitioners? How can we build community for people who work in supply chains?We plan to hold monthly events (approximately 1 hour) on a consistent day of the week (based on the availability of participants/guest speakers). We also plan to attend and promote events on campus (e.g., speakers, lectures) as they relate to gender and supply chains. Planned events include hands-on activities and treks, including a book club and a manufacturing site tour.

Engendering Respectful Communities (ERC) is a one session workshop that engages graduate students in meaningful dialogue about various forms of sexual misconduct they may encounter in both professional and social spaces, and provides resources for intervention or support in such circumstances.
The primary goal of the workshop is to address complexities experienced by graduate students as they engage in bystander intervention, so that participants gain an increase in awareness of barriers to action and familiarity with strategic planning to overcome them. The workshop also introduces participants to on-campus resources and provides knowledge on how sexual misconduct can unfold in graduate-specific settings.
The ERC workshop uses small-group circles intended to promote active reflection and space to build community. The procedure of circles is introduced at the beginning of the workshop in order to help participants get used to the process, which they do through a circle for introductions and value-sharing for the workshop space. These circles depict various, realistic scenarios related to sexual misconduct within the graduate community. The circle process allows circle members to process the monologues, reflect on complexities with identity and power dynamics within them, name potential barriers to intervention, and think of various ways in which they might respond if faced with similar situations. The circles provide a way to foster collective building of ideas, where participants learn from one another and all input is equally valued. Participants are encouraged to share but can always pass if desired, creating an environment where participation is open but not forced. Due to the participatory nature of the workshop, if you are to arrive more than 20 minutes late, we will ask you to re-register for another workshop session.
If you have any questions about or concerns with taking this workshop, or are in need of an exemption, please contact jhippe@umich.edu or fill out this form. We know some students come to campus having already experienced harm. If you have circumstances that make completing this course challenging, please reach out to the GROWE team. SAPAC GROWE provides exemptions to the ERC workshop (where requirements are set in place) on a case by case basis. The Program Manager will communicate with students requesting exemptions via email and/or meet with students via zoom meetings to discuss their need for exemptions and provide any relevant and necessary resources.
