In this episode, we are joined by Meng Shu, a Graduate Programs Strategist for the University of British Columbia's school of biomedical engineering. We talk about the symbiotic - and sometimes divisive - relationship between faculty and staff in universities. Faculty have to manage academic demands, while staff face administrative burdens, which can either be complementary or constraining for either party. Join us as we chat with Meng about what she's learned on the topic, and how we see these relationships play out in our own experiences.
