Our goal is to extend the collaborative spirit of the conference throughout the year by helping members build professional connections, exchange ideas, discover opportunities, and foster collaborations across academia, industry, and national laboratories.

Conference Events – Student Mentor Lunch

The Student Mentor Lunch lets students pick the minds of professionals from academia, government and industry. It’s a chance to hear from the experts why they chose their field, what it takes to get there, and what it’s really like once they arrived. The Mentor Lunch also features a speaker who provides an expert “how to” discussion on new topic each year.
