The Graduate Center

What is the Graduate Center?

The Graduate Center partners with other offices on campus to offer many types of programs, including professional development workshops, writing support, short courses and "bootcamps" to help students develop specific skills and excel academically and professionally. The Graduate Center also hosts events, including the 3MT® competition and the Graduate Research Symposium.

Graduate Center programs are voluntary and open to William & Mary graduate students in the four research-focused schools: the College of Arts & Sciences, the School for Computing, Data Science, and Physics, the School of Education, and the Batten School for Coastal and Marine Sciences (VIMS).

Where is the Graduate Center?

The Grad Center is located in Ewell Hall, Room 250. Graduate students can use their W&M ID card to swipe in from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m., seven days a week.

Directions

To visit, enter Ewell Hall from one of the two side entrances and head to the 2nd floor. Follow signs to find the Grad Center. (Don't enter the front portico portion of the building; that is the A&S Deans' office suite and does not connect to the rest of the building.)
