Schedule

Fall 2024

Below is the tentative workshop schedule for fall 2024. Students will be able to begin registering for workshops in July.

Each workshop lasts 45-60 minutes and includes take-home information to help put new techniques to work. Reservations are required, and students can register up until the beginning of each workshop. Click on the workshop title to register.

Workshops are held in the Altshuler Learning Enhancement Center (A-LEC), located in the Loyd All Sports Center, suite 202, and in Fondren Library.

If you are an undergraduate student and unable to attend a workshop, schedule an appointment with an academic counselor/learning specialist for all topics excluding Adobe, Excel and Microsoft Office.
