Graduate Student Resources
Supporting the Graduate Student Experience
WPI is committed to supporting graduate students throughout their educational experience. From resources that support travel expenses while students present their research findings to workshops that prepare students for post-graduation success---the Office of Graduate Studies is instituting and expanding programming specific to their needs.
Fellowships, Scholarships & Grants
Funding opportunities like fellowships, scholarships, and grants are available to help make graduate study possible. Below are some resources to help you locate and apply for opportunities that suit your academic plans.
Thesis and Dissertation Resources
At WPI, all doctoral degrees require the submission of a dissertation, and many master's degree programs require the submission of a thesis. Dissertations and theses are submitted electronically.
Electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs): Graduate students should consult with their advisors and departments or programs prior to initiating the development of their ETDs to ensure compliance with style and format requirements.
Submission guide: The Gordon Library has developed a general guide to aid graduate students in the preparation and submission of their ETDs (see below).
Submission portal: Once an ETD has been developed and is ready for submission, graduate students can use the link below to submit it through the WPI ETD portal.
Graduate Student Government
The Graduate Student Government (GSG) is the governing body of the graduate students at WPI. Our mission is to promote graduate life and we fulfill this by being the effective graduate student voice, communicating with faculty and administration, and providing academic and social functions for current and incoming graduate students.
