Info Centre

The BISC Grad Caucus has compiled several information resources to help new students ease their transition into graduate studies in the department of biological sciences. Many of these resources can also help solve, or better yet, avoid common problems, useful to graduate students at any stage.

Information Resources

• Grad Student Survival Guide
• Graduate Student Checklist
• Guide to Student-Supervisor Conflict
• BISC grads Facebook group
• Tax tips
• Scholarship deadlines
• Graduate Benefit Plan

Solutions to common problems

Got a problem you can't solve?
If you can't find a solution on this site, you can always approach a member of the DGSC (Departmental Graduate Studies Committee) about almost any problems relating to your graduate experience.

• About the DGSC
• DGSC main page (Dept. of Biological Sciences)

Or contact your caucus exec at bisc-grad-execs@sfu.ca.
