Upcoming Events

January 31st, 2024 | Rock Your Next Conference (RYNC)

Attention STEM students! Are you planning to attend a professional or academic conference this spring, summer, or even next fall? Whether you’re new to the experience and unsure of what to expect, or an old pro just looking to step up your game, this annual mock mini-conference has something for everyone! This event will feature a panel of current students from 5:10-5:40pm who have participated in multiple conferences and will share their insights. Our panelists are students from a variety of on-campus organizations, including: Out in STEM (oSTEM), Society of Hispanic Engineers (SHPE), Women and Minorities in Computing (WiCMiC), and Google Developers Club (GDC). After the panel, there will be time to enjoy some pizza, win a prize (a cool YETI mug!), and practice networking with the panelists and your peers 🙂 From 6-6:30pm, we will host concurrent workshops on Perfecting Your Elevator Pitch and Telling Your Story about your research and projects.

All majors, class years, and degree levels are welcome. Please register and spread the word through your connections and organizations, and get ready to ROCK your next conference! Co-sponsored by oSTEM, NSBE, GDC, and Wic-Mic!
