Updated Portal Focuses on Program Director Needs

Categories: GPD Development

Welcome to GPDNet, an effort to cultivate a richer, more collaborative communications environment among Graduate School staff and Graduate Program Directors, who we view as our most important allies in delivering excellence in graduate education at UNC Charlotte.

Over the summer, we consolidated all the news, information and tools GPDs need into one online portal (integrated into the eGEM platform) that is accessible only to approved faculty and staff.

GPDNet is actually an expansion of the existing eGEM system and allows us to provide information for GPDs in a password-protected place (integrated into the eGEM platform) that is accessible only to approved faculty and staff. It is part of an overall initiative to improve the effectiveness of the Graduate School’s communications.

While the site is still under development, when fully deployed you will be able to select the topics of greatest interest and those will automatically arrive in your email box as soon as the site is updated.

A special thanks to GPDs who responded to our survey earlier this summer.  That feedback helped us shape the topics for information updates as well as how we designed the overall portal.  We will be counting on your feedback to continuously improve the information we provide and how we provide it.
