 The
Graduate Opportunities and Minority
Achievement Program, or GO-MAP, has
been an integral part of the
University of Washington for more
than 30 years, taking very seriously our
efforts to establish and maintain campus, local,
national, and international networks for
students in our program. Members of our staff
work closely with faculty, staff, and graduate
students currently on campus to enhance academic
and funding opportunities and to encourage
scholarship and research that explores and
supports cultural diversity.
GO-MAP has two advisory boards that work
independently and jointly: the Student Advisory
Board and the Faculty/Staff Advisory Board.
These boards are key to the success of our
signature events: the fall GO-MAP new student
orientation, Getting Connected; the spring
campus visit for accepted students, Prospective
Student Days; the Voices in Academia Lunch
Series; the Diversity Book Talk Series; and the Mangels Lecture Series. With generous support
from the Offices of the President and Provost,
GO-MAP sponsors interdisciplinary and
cross-disciplinary student-initiated symposia,
campus opportunities, and community events to
help interested students connect with each other
and build community.
Our nationally and internationally renowned
faculty provide graduate education and mentoring
through more than one hundred graduate programs
for careers in the humanities, social sciences,
arts, education, the professions, the natural
sciences, technology, and medicine. We invite
you to become part of our campus community as
graduate scholars preparing for rewarding life
work rooted in diverse intellectual engagement
and experience.
