All K-State graduate students are welcome and encouraged to participate in leadership roles or serve as committee members in the GSC.

Expand your horizon

Serving in a leadership role in the Graduate Student Council provides graduate students with leadership and professional development experience beyond the training received in their academic program. Getting involved in the GSC also provides excellent networking opportunites. The GSC brings together graduate students from diverse disciplines and backgrounds, and helps graduate students gain a better understanding of how they fit into the entire university structure and are affected by and can impact university operations and policy.
