Community Events

NYUAD is committed to building a vibrant postdoctoral community outside of your individual research.

The Postdoctoral Council Steering Committee (PCSC) in association with the Graduate and Postdoctoral Programs Office (GPPO) help run a variety of social and community building events, which are a great way to meet and interact with other postdocs across campus.

Whether you're a new postdoc and/or a postdoc who has been here for years, you are invited to register for our upcoming postdoc social and community building events! We also encourage you to bring family members and children along too; You'll find that many of the social events are family friendly.

NYUAD Postgrad Calendar

All events organised by the Graduate and Postdoctoral Programs Office are centrally available on the Postdoctoral and Graduate Student Calendar. You can access this by going to the Intranet (must be logged into NYU).

National Postdoc Appreciation Week

Every year in the 3rd week of September, Universities across the World take part in the National Postdoc Appreciation Week (NPAW). Here at NYUAD, the Graduate and Postdoctoral Programs Office (GPPO) host a variety of events to celebrate the 190+ postdocs who make NYUAD what it is!
