Five Landscape Architecture and Regional Planning (LARP) students were recently awarded the Jury Prize in the 2020 Edmund N. Bacon Urban Design Awards Student Competition. The interdisciplinary team of graduate students was one of four winning teams out of 2,500 registered teams from all over the world.

Three Isenberg students won UMass Amherst’s Hult Prize contest, hosted by the Berthiaume Center for Entrepreneurship, will advance to the regional competition this spring with a sticker that can detect whether food has spoiled.

As part of an ongoing effort to highlight various resources, spaces and service, the UMass Amherst Libraries are currently promoting their Gender Studies E-Book Collection and Latin American Studies E-Book Collection from Duke University Press.

The Graduate School’s Office of Professional Development is hosting a public speaking workshop on Wednesday, Jan. 16 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in the Integrated Learning Center S240. The event will feature Jake Livengood, senior assistant director of graduate student career services at MIT.
