Welcome
The MGSA is the student organization which specifically caters to the interests and needs of the graduate student population of UIC's Department of Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science (MSCS).
Our aim is to improve the quality of life for MSCS graduate students here at UIC. We seek to do this on a professional and social level. We act as a communication link between the MSCS Department, the University, and the MSCS graduate students. As such we seek to disseminate pertinent information to our members as we receive it.
Over the years, various events have been organized for the benefit of our members. A regular feature on our events calendar is the weekly teas where students, faculty, and staff can interact socially.
MGSA is an ever evolving for-the-students-by-the-students organization.
