Learn more about GPS here.\nJoin a community of 200 OPTIONS alumni from seven cohorts that are working in industry and completing their degree\, and gain access to an exclusive OPTIONS LinkedIn Group.\n\nSelection Criteria\n\nU of T Engineering MEng students\nStrong interest in developing personal and professional skills beyond technical knowledge\nCurious about career exploration\nEager to participate in group discussions\nWillingness to be part of a team and support your peers’ career preparation\n\nProgram Delivery                   \nThis is an interactive program (not a traditional lecture or webinar). You will participate in interactive activities and small group conversations. You will need access to a laptop/computer with audio and\, ideally\, video. \nAll nine sessions occur live and online on Wednesdays from 2 – 4 pm EST between January 27 and March 31\, exclusive of February 17. See schedule here. One-on-one meetings occur between 9 – 5 pm EST. \nApplicant Commitment\n\nBy applying to The OPTIONS Program\, I commit to attend all nine sessions. Why? \n\nThis program is designed as an integrated sequence of sessions\, and you will benefit most by attending all nine sessions. We recognize some session titles or descriptions might not resonate with you. We ask that you bring curiosity\, patience\, and an open-mind. Since 2017\, we have delivered seven OPTIONS cohorts to 200 graduate students and post-doctoral fellows. The MOST common feedback we receive from participants is that the individual sessions build on each other to form a comprehensive\, structured career management experience.\nYou are joining a cohort of 30 participants\, and within this cohort you are placed in a Peer Success Team of four to five participants. Over nine sessions\, you will work with the cohort and your team to complete program activities and discussions. By applying to this program\, you are committing to the cohort and your Peer Success Team that you will attend all sessions.\nThe Vice-Dean\, Graduate Studies and the Troost Institute for Leadership Education in Engineering invest a significant amount of resources and time in developing and delivering this one of a kind program to you FREE OF CHARGE. We ask that you commit to attend all nine sessions AND\, although not required\, take advantage of the one-on-one meetings\, videos\, and toolkits to make this experience work for YOU!\nWe receive more applications than the program can accommodate. By committing to this program\, you are taking a spot from another student.\n\nMost importantly\, this program is here for YOU to develop your personal effectiveness\, clarify your career aspirations\, and have a meaningful learning experience with a supportive community of peers and instructors. There is no homework\, only optional activities to accelerate your career exploration\, and no grades. We recognize life happens and there might be unexpected situations that might mean you have to miss a session. That is okay! Remember\, you must attend at least seven of the nine sessions to receive your certificate. \nApplications Due \nTuesday January 19 at 9:00 am EST. \nQuestions?

You will need access to a laptop/computer with audio and\, ideally\, video. \nAll nine sessions occur live and online on Tuesdays from 2 – 4 pm EST between September 29 and December 1\, exclusive of November 10. See schedule here. One-on-one meetings occur between 9 – 5 pm EST. \nApplicant Commitment\n\nBy applying to The OPTIONS Program\, I commit to attend all nine sessions. Why? \n\nThis program is designed as an integrated sequence of sessions\, and you will benefit most by attending all nine sessions. We recognize some session titles or descriptions might not resonate with you. We ask that you bring curiosity\, patience\, and an open-mind. Since 2017\, we have delivered six OPTIONS cohorts to 200 graduate students and post-doctoral fellows. The MOST common feedback we receive from participants is that the individual sessions build on each other to form a comprehensive\, structured career management experience.\nYou are joining a cohort of 30 students\, and within this cohort you are placed in a Peer Success Team of four to five students. Over nine sessions\, you will work with the cohort and your team to complete program activities and discussions. By applying to this program\, you are committing to the cohort and your Peer Success Team that you will attend all sessions.\nThe Vice-Dean\, Graduate Studies and the Troost Institute for Leadership Education in Engineering invest a significant amount of resources and time in developing and delivering this one of a kind program to you FREE OF CHARGE. We ask that you commit to attend all nine sessions AND\, although not required\, take advantage of the one-on-one meetings\, videos\, and toolkits to make this experience work for YOU!\nWe receive more applications than the program can accommodate. By committing to this program\, you are taking a spot from another student.\n\nMost importantly\, this program is here for YOU to develop your personal effectiveness\, clarify your career aspirations\, and have a meaningful learning experience with a supportive community of peers and instructors. There is no homework\, only optional activities to accelerate your career exploration\, and no grades. We recognize life happens and there might be unexpected situations that might mean you have to miss a session. That is okay! Remember\, you must attend at least seven of the nine sessions to receive your certificate. \nApplications Due \nMonday September 21 at 9:00 am EST \nQuestions?

Especially with our constantly online lives\, it can feel harder to really get to know the people that we interact with. Research has shown that getting to know people and building meaningful social connection is strongly correlated with academic achievement\, mental wellbeing\, and professional success. It has also shown that connections are made meaningful when there is openness and follow-through. Come and push your comfort zone in practicing these concepts at this interactive session on powerful conversations. \nProgram Details:\nDate: Monday September 14\nTime: 8:00 – 9:30 pm EST URL:https://istep.utoronto.ca/event/conversations-for-creating-connection-leadership-lab/ LOCATION:Online\, Canada ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://istep.utoronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/sites/35/2020/09/Conversations-for-Connection-vCCR-J8ZX4S.tmp_.png ORGANIZER;CN="ILead":MAILTO:info.ilead@utoronto.ca END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20200908T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20200908T200000 DTSTAMP:20260423T095127 CREATED:20200812T161157Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200908T203334Z UID:668-1599591600-1599595200@istep.utoronto.ca SUMMARY:The OPTIONS Program – Annual Reunion DESCRIPTION:The OPTIONS Program\nThe OPTIONS Program is an initiative to support all engineering graduate students and post-doctoral fellows in exploring diverse career options. \nLearn more here: http://uoft.me/optionsprogram \n*This event is by invitation only.

Through group activities and conversations you’ll discover that it’s possible to trigger your body to produce hormones that have a whole range of benefits — from feeling happier to lowering your blood pressure. You’ll learn how to mix and match happy hormones to personalize your own mood boosters for whenever you need them. \nAbout the Facilitator: Dr Robin Sacks \nDr. Robin Sacks has been teaching Positive Psychology and Leadership at Skule for over a decade. Her goal in designing TEP1026 (“The Happy Engineer”) was to provide an opportunity for students to explore some of life’s big questions in an academic setting. Robin also served as the Director of Research for the Troost Institute for Leadership Education in Engineering. She has traveled the world sharing the findings from Troost ILead’s groundbreaking research in an effort to help professionals develop people skills alongside their technical education. Robin has a Master’s in Cognitive Science and a PhD in Developmental Psychology\, both from U of T. \nRegister!
