Student Life

Graduate and Professional Student Assembly (GAPSA)
There are about 16,000 graduate and professional students at the University of Minnesota - about 35% of the student body - located within 10 different schools and close to 200 programs. They come from all 50 states and over 118 countries.  They produce world-renowned research, award-winning teaching and outstanding service to Minnesota, the United States and the world. GAPSA is where they all come together.

Council of Graduate Students (COGS)
COGS provides many opportunities for Graduate School students to become involved in graduate program and Graduate School governance, as well as governance at the University level. Through participation in governance, graduate students have an opportunity to help shape Graduate School and University policy on a wide variety of issues affecting graduate education and research.

Many departments have graduate student groups that relate specifically to your interest area.  Please refer to the academic department for more information.
