Graduate Student Association Website

The University of Prince Edward Island Graduate Student Association (UPEI GSA) was officially recognized as an associate member of the UPEI SU in 1989. 

The UPEI GSA consists of those individuals pursuing post-graduate education. The program stresses academic development of the student through research, the writing of the thesis, graduate courses, literature searches and seminars. 

The following are the objectives of the UPEI Graduate Student Association:

1. to represent the graduate student body in all matters pertinent to its members;
2. to act as liaison between graduate students and the faculty, administration and undergraduate students of the University of Prince Edward Island;  
3. to promote social and cultural activities as well as service programs for the membership;  
4. to provide a communicative link with the graduate students of other Universities, and affiliation with National Graduate Council.  

The administration of the UPEI GSA is carried out by a four-member executive, consisting of a president, vice-president, a secretary, and a treasurer, each elected for a one-year term.  The Association meets as required, with a minimum of four meetings a year.
