Guest Speakers

An important part of the club is guest speakers: students, professionals in the STEM field, or professors who speak about their experience in STEM and university.

We are always eager to accept guest speakers, the sign-up form is below!

Guest speakers present Google Slides over a Google Meet with the chapter. Their slides are on their career, educational path, and any advice they have to us as STEM students.

Specifics:

• These events are 10:45 - 11:15 AM on certain Thursdays, and there's a Q+A session during the last 10 minutes

• Students vary in age from high school freshmen to seniors
