The Graduate and Professional Student Senate (GPSS) represents the rights and interests of over 15,000 graduate and professional students at the University of Washington. Our Senators represent academic departments as well as non-academic programs and communities. GPSS hosts events and programming, provides opportunities for engagement through internal committees and university-wide liaison positions, and offers funding for academic and professional development.
Our actions revolve around representing students from diverse academic departments and non-academic programs and communities. We advocate for the rights of students in front of the UW administration, as well as state and federal governments.
