This is a great opportunity to connect with government agencies and commodity groups and getting exposed for future job opportunities. It is very disconcerting that only 8 of you replied positively to this initiative. When reflecting on weaknesses and threats of our graduate program, you indicated that the lack of connection with industry and private sector is a serious weakness. Well, it appears to me that many of you do not want to be engaged when you are offered the possibility. Too bad! Claudio Stasolla Chair of Graduate Studies of Plant Science Good morning PS Grad students, Manitoba Agriculture has opportunities for our graduate students to participate in extension activities by providing talks at their events. It is a great way to gain experience and good exposure for students. To help with the selection process for different events, Manitoba Agriculture will need to know the student’s research interest by means of their Thesis Title. If you are interested in participating in these extension activities please email me your Thesis title by Friday April 26, 2024. Participation is not mandatory, but highly encouraged. If you have any questions please contact me or Dr. Stasolla. Warm regards, Claudio Stasolla Dept.
