The 研究生 Society for 国际研究 (GSIS) seeks to create greater unity among graduate students in international studies through academic and professional opportunities; connections to faculty, ODU管理员, 学生会, and the community; and fellowship among students in the 研究生 Program for 国际研究.
It bears highlighting that every student enrolled in the 研究生 Program in 国际研究 at ODU is automatically a member of GSIS.
We envision the GSIS as a common forum for its members serving three broad functions: social interaction, academic/professional enhancement and community outreach. As an academic/professional society, GSIS will work as a conduit to the GPIS faculty. We will hold interaction programs where members can engage with the professors informally
Finally, as a community organization, GSIS would provide outreach to the larger ODU community. We envision participating in community activities in the University and the area, co-hosting of social events with other organizations and advocating for better support for graduate students. GSIS would also serve as the link between current students and our valued alumni. 最后, we once again thank all the members for your support and look forward to your participation in our events and activities. We hope you will provide feedback and offer us new ideas to pursue in the future.
This is your Society and only your engagement will make it stronger and more effective in the future. 如果你还没有，请加入GSIS小组 脸谱网 也可以访问我们的 website. And please feel free to email any of us or talk to us in person anytime.
让我们一起在GPIS度过美好的一年!
