* Alumni STEM Career Panel *

Not necessarily your typical STEM career

On January 10 from 7-8:30 p.m. join some Women of Dartmouth from the
Upper Valley for a panel addressing potential STEM careers, and not
necessarily the first ones that come to mind. These alumni women will
talk about their career paths and how their STEM backgrounds came into
play. They will be available to answer questions. The panel will take
place in Moore Hall, B03. Come for information, conversation (and
cookies). 

* Women in Science Post-doctoral and Graduate Student Panel *

Skills and advice for a career in science as a woman

Graduate Women in Science and Engineering (GWISE) and the Women in
Science Project will be hosting a Women in Science Post-doctoral and
Graduate Student Panel. The panel will take place January 24, 2018 (Wednesday)
from 5:30-8:30 p.m. in the GRAD Lounge (4 Currier Lane, Hanover). 

We will be discussing skills and advice for a career in science as a
woman. Dinner will be served for all attendees. The night will end with
a workshop to develop some of those skills together where attendees will
pair with our women postdocs and graduate students. We hope to see you
there!

If planning to attend, please RSVP at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Jusm5B8jJMC70HV-x0kKCjcdB1Kpk7pxECnugcmT4Kw/edit?usp=sharing
