This seminar focuses on establishing core competencies and skills to succeed in graduate school and beyond. The course aims to conceptualize graduate studies as part of students’ lifelong professional development journey in the field of Rehabilitation Sciences. During the course, students will consolidate foundations of the essential academic skills (e.g., critical appraisal) and professional attributes (e.g., scientific writing, speaking, time/project management), while deepening critical thinking abilities and expanding cultural competencies (i.e., around marginalized communities, gender/sex, etc.) in an interdisciplinary collaborative learning environment.
