We are excited to share that myCHOICE will be moving to UChicagoGRAD!

The myCHOICE team is delighted to announce that over the course of the upcoming academic year, we will begin the process of moving myCHOICE from the BSD Office of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs to UChicagoGRAD, a Provost’s Office department that provides administrative support and co-curricular services to all UChicago graduate programs. This move is the culmination of years of growth, innovation, and community development among myCHOICE participants and supporters like you.

Over the course of 10 years in the BSD, myCHOICE has benefited enormously from a long and fruitful relationship with UChicagoGRAD and has grown to include trainees across three academic units. The merger of these entities will concentrate and amplify the resources of both. myCHOICE at UChicagoGRAD will continue to provide existing core programs, and also develop innovative new programs to serve the evolving needs of trainees across all STEM fields. We’re excited to see what we can do together in the next 10 years and beyond!

If you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact us at mychoice@uchicago.edu.
