Mission
The
purpose of this group is to foster community and collaboration among HPM
students, while providing opportunities for faculty involvement and feedback.
This will be achieved through student research presentations and skill-building
workshops; forums for peer review; sharing of research, publication, and
funding opportunities and experiences; and regular social and service
activities. Additionally, the group will organize student welcome activities
and will provide a sounding board for the student graduate-faculty
representative.
Membership
This
group is open to all graduate students in HPM, though the academic
focus will be largely on research (as opposed to practice.) Email
invitations will be sent to all HPM students for each meeting.
Interested students from related disciplines (for example, sociology and
applied economics) are also welcome to attend meetings and functions.
However, the central leadership and direction will come from students
within HPM.
