Hear from students describing their experience at the Townsend Institute Kickoff Conference

You will begin your term with a 4-day virtual kick-off conference with your community of fellow students where Dr. Townsend, Townsend Institute Faculty, and Fellows will conduct a series of trainings to jump-start your graduate program.
