During the SHPE Conference, Mr. Erin Wills and Mr. Camarillo met with over 200 students at the conference to discuss the opportunities at CURENT. The backgrounds of the people met were quite broad geographically, academically, and professionally. Some of the people met included community college students and faculty; undergraduate, masters, and doctorate candidates; college faculty; industry sponsors; and current and past executive board members of SHPE.
Overall, 74 people received graduate school information about CURENT’s four campuses and 69 people received undergraduate research information about CURENT’s summer Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program.
