The
Office of Graduate Fellowships and Student Success, formed by the
Graduate School and International Education, also will administer
doctoral fellowships. The office will be run by Vicky Hartwell, the
former director of domestic graduate recruitment.
Under
the restructuring, the international and domestic recruitment offices
will become one overseen by Lynn Mosesso, director of Graduate and
International Recruitment and Admissions. The staff will continue
focusing on attracting a diverse student population and high-ability
grad students.
Kim Needy, dean of the Graduate School and
International Education, shared her thoughts on the new office.
"I
am excited by the creation of the Office of Graduate Fellowships and
Student Success, and I believe the resources and support this new
office will provide will play an important role in strengthening
graduate education on our campus by helping our graduate students
become even more successful," Needy said.
New graduate office aims for higher degree of success
The University of
Arkansas recently opened a new office devoted to helping graduates
find new avenues of financial assistance and support, as well as
providing graduate faculty with more enrichment opportunities.
