Join the SPRINT exec team! Applications will open for UofT undergrads, grads, & postdocs in September 2026
As a trainee-led initiative, SPRINT was founded by a group of graduate students in the Department of Psychology at the University of Toronto.
Today, the SPRINT Team includes undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral volunteers from across the three campuses (St. George, Mississauga, Scarborough), as well as other affiliated programs. The roles include executive members, graduate and post-doctoral volunteers, and undergraduate volunteers. Faculty, staff, and librarians at the University of Toronto also support SPRINT's work, dedicating their service to equity-advancing initiatives like ours.
Check out our Instagram @uoftsprint to meet the SPRINT Team!
