The Earth, Planetary, and Space Sciences Department hosts a series of workshops to provide students with information and skills for career advancement. Workshops will be held on the last Wednesday of each month, both in person at 5pm in EPSS 5655 and virtually over Zoom; pizza will be provided for free!
All students (undergraduate, graduate, EPSS and non-EPSS) are welcome to attend. Students from underrepresented groups are especially encouraged to participate.

Upcoming Workshop:
For tomorrow’s EPSS Workshop Wednesdays professional development series (see attached calendar), we will have 4 EPSS alums who are now in different roles in the space industry, from aerospace, PhD research, data analysis and modeling, to outreach education. They will talk about their career trajectories and share some advice, followed by audience Q&A. The event will be hybrid on Zoom as two of the speakers cannot attend in person. Come ready with questions!
Location: Slichter Hall 3853, Wednesday April 26th 5-6pm
