➡ Read UCLA Newsroom’s coverage of this event and interview with Associate Vice Chancellor of BruinX, Devon Carbado!

BruinX‘s Mock Class Initiative: “BruiNext: Pathways and Possibilities”’s aim is to provide UCLA Juniors with the opportunity to get a real sense of the graduate/professional school experience by participating in one of the classes we list below. Participants will receive a short reading assignment that will serve as a basis for the class. All classes will be followed by a reception in which representatives from various graduate programs will be on hand to answer questions about the graduate school application process and share other relevant sources. We hope to see you there!

If you have any questions, please call/email Rusty Klibaner at (310) 825-2895 or rklibaner@equity.ucla.edu.
