Link Lab Students

Both graduate and undergraduate students participate in a variety of research and educational opportunities in the Link Lab.

Programs, Events, and Resources

  • Link Lab Committee on Culture and Livability

    The Link Lab Committee on Culture and Livability is a student-run committee that aims to elevate the Link Lab experience, for both residents and non-residents. The committee strives to encourage comradery among the diverse Link Lab group through professional and social events and serve as the liaison between students, staff, and faculty.

  • Student Services and Wellbeing

    Graduate school can be a challenging journey, and there are resources here at UVA for you when you need help and support. Please reach out when you need assistance, and know that the UVA community is committed to helping you succeed.

    Resources for students

  • Professional Development

    Check back soon for all of our Fall 2021 professional development sessions!

    The University of Virginia offers FREE online training through LinkedIn Learning. The site contains a training video library for courses and tutorials on hundreds of topics. You can simply type "leadership" or "ethics" or "entrepreneurship" or "python" in the search box and many options are available under those topics. For example, look at the great resources under "Presentations" to improve your oral communication skills: CLICK HERE

    We also recommend taking advantage of the great professional development and training opportunities offered through PhD Plus, UVA Engineering Writing Lab and other UVA resources.
