UR has maintained an institutional membership of NCFDD for several years, first through the OEE(OEI) office, then by AS&E and now we in the provost糖心传媒檚 office will be managing it centrally.

The 糖心传媒 is an institutional member of the NCFDD, an independent professional development and mentoring organization. This membership grants you access to various resources, many at no cost to you. Many URochester graduate students and post-docs already take advantage of NCFDD tools, such as the 14-day writing challenge program, mentor-mapping, and webinars on time-management, semester planning, and managing stress by shifting self-talk. Join us Thursday October 8, 11:00 am (ET), to learn more about NCFDD resources for graduate students and post-docs.
