We have a Women in Hardware Panel coming up on October 8th at 7:00PM!

Join us for an insightful discussion with our hardware engineer panel of women on CUAir and CUAir alumni and learn about accomplishments women in hardware are making, and the obstacles they overcome and face in a field that they are significantly under-represented in.

We welcome and encourage everyone to come, listen and learn! Our panel will be discussing A LOT- acquiring internships, collaborating in teams, finding their purpose, what it’s like to transition to leadership, things they wished they knew coming in as a freshman. We will be answering any questions you might have at the end of the session, including those about our recruitment process!
