About JGSC

Expanded Mission:

• Foster a sense of identification with UCSD, especially with the Jacobs School of Engineering in particular, and enhance the quality of life     of the Jacobs graduate students.

• Host events that contribute a sense of graduate student community and belonging by ensuring that the student body gets together often     enough to create a sense of belonging to a group.

• Host events aimed to help remind the graduate student body that the Jacobs School takes an active interest in their general well-being and   happiness, not just their academic progress.

• Host events that are faculty-inclusive in order to help develop more open and relaxed student-faculty interactions.

• Promote stronger departmental graduate student organizations by facilitating information transfer as well as cross-departmental               cooperation and coordination.

• Promote a stronger Jacobs graduate network by grouping the organizational strength of each of the departmental organizations, giving       the Jacobs greater leverage to enact change within the Jacobs School, within UCSD, and within the greater community.

• The council is not meant to replace/lessen Jacobs participation in the UCSD GSA. Redundancy should be avoided, and GSA participation should be strongly encouraged.
