Office/Hours: Individual meetings available by appointment
The Graduate Diploma Seminar is designed to be a resource for graduate diploma students, providing a forum for students to work with one another and to maintain contact with the program director over the course of the year. Meeting on alternate* Fridays, the course will offer workshops, lectures and guest speakers with the goal of informing students about the resources and opportunities within the program and at Concordia, introducing them to professional practitioners and professional networks in Montréal, and providing skills for career development.
