The Washington University Postdoc Society (WUPS) serves all postdocs at the university, and all postdocs are members of WUPS! We work to support postdocs throughout their time at the university.
WUPS is an independent organization and works in close collaboration with the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs (OPA) to provide career development, wellness, outreach, and policy opportunities for all postdocs.
WUPS is governed by a set of bylaws (Updated 2024).
WUPS is managed by the Executive Council. It consists of four different committees led by respective chairs.
