Helping graduate students to suffer less
The Biology Graduate Student Association (BGSA) exists to serve the needs of the graduate students of the Department of Biological Sciences at Florida International University. These needs include but are not restricted to advancing the academic and professional interests of biology graduate students, promoting social and intellectual interactions within the academic community, and aiding biology faculty with departmental programs like the annual Biology Symposium.
The BGSA seeks to unite students from different biological science disciplines to increase their overall contribution to the academic community of FIU. A united graduate student group allows for greater collaboration with other student groups of similar inclination, heralding benefits for both the students and the campus in general. The BGSA aims to continue in its capacity as a bridge between the students and the administration of the department of Biological Sciences as well as other academic and social groups of the FIU community.
