The Master's Prep Workshops were designed to give Master's students the tools to be successful in their programs, from conducting research to writing a thesis. UNC librarians, faculty, and students offered their expertise to help students make the most of their time in graduate school.
Master's Prep Workshops ran from 2021 to 2022 and were sponsored by the University Libraries and the Graduate School. Materials from past workshops are available in this collection. The series was rebranded as Bear GRADS in 2023, available at https://digscholarship.unco.edu/beargrads/.
