Dear Students,
I know we are all excited about the Ford Student Center’s Grand Opening Tonight. My STEM loving heart is looking forward to the drone show and LEGO building. 😊
There are great events coming to campus next week including my workshop: “Debug Your Job Search: Find and Apply for Internships and Jobs in Tech & Data Science” on Tuesday at 5:30pm. I would also encourage students interested in coding related roles to mark their calendars for October 1st at 6pm. I am thrilled to be co-hosting “Preparing for the Coding Interview: Insights & Advice for Entering the World of Tech” with WiCS and ACM. The program will include and introduction to coding interviews and a conversation with alumni currently working in the tech field.
If you have an interest in marine science, contact me for new information on three programs at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole.
Best,
Carolyn
