The School of Graduate Studies is the driving force behind graduate and postdoctoral success at UMKC. It empowers emerging scholars, researchers, and creators to launch meaningful, impactful careers by providing the professional development, mentoring, and research support necessary for graduate students and postdocs to thrive — not just during their studies, but long after they step into the world as experts in their fields and leaders in their communities.
A gift to the School of Graduate Studies fuels discovery, accelerates graduate degree completion, and opens doors to post-graduate careers that catalyze scientific exploration, stimulate creativity, and transform communities. Together, we can ensure every graduate student and postdoc has the resources and professional development opportunities they need to excel at UMKC and beyond.
