Student Life

As a student in the Physical Sciences Division, you’ll be a part of a thriving intellectual community of nearly 2,300 students. Your experience will extend from labs and classrooms in Chicago's Hyde Park to global centers and alumni clubs around the world.

The PSD offers numerous opportunities for student engagement: community and wellness events, diversity and inclusion celebrations, workshops, outreach opportunities, fairs, and leadership positions with student groups, including the PSD Social Committee, the Graduate Recruitment Initiative Team (GRIT), the Women and Gender Minorities in Graduate Science (WIGS+), and more.

Additionally, UChicago GRAD is an invaluable resource, dedicated to helping you navigate UChicago, explore our vast student resources, and build networks and connections with your peers across the University.
