Queerness at Work

The Experiential Education Department at UPEI helps students build bridges between their university learning and the world of work. Our office offers numerous free workshops and events to help UPEI students develop a range of personal and professional skills. We also support students through coordinating experiential learning opportunities, enabling students to apply what they are learning in the classroom in real world contexts while expanding their growth.

UPEI Experiential Education

Join our panel of recent UPEI graduates as we discuss being LGBTQ+ and its intersections in relation to work and career.

An event by and for 2SLGBTQ+ people in the UPEI community.Queerness and its intersections can impact the experiences that we have with work in many ways. 2SLGBTQ+ folks may find that our career priorities, goals, and perspectives are informed by our sexual and/or gender identities, and we don't always have others who we can talk with about that, especially if we are working in isolation from queer colleagues.Join us for a panel discussion with four recent UPEI graduates, where we will discuss how our identities and their intersections impact our experiences of and thinking about work and career.Panelists include:<ul><li>Amirah Oyesegun (they/them) - BSc 2021, Foods and Nutrition</li><li>Sophie Burns (she/her) - BA 2022, Psychology</li><li>Brian Affoun (he/him) - BSc 2022, Psychology</li><li>Kali Ross (they/she) - BSc 2021, Biology</li></ul>This event is intended for 2SLGBTQ+ people. Anyone who is questioning their gender or sexuality is welcome. While we appreciate the importance of straight allies in our lives, we would prefer to have this conversation with an audience of people within 2SLGBTQ+ communities.Registrants will be emailed a Zoom link prior to the event.
