On behalf of @USCViterbi Dean's Office, I'm organizing a free (virtual) 2-day workshop + "grad program fair" for UGs interested in pursuing grad degrees in STEM this summer. W/ 2days, we can cover many topics. What should we discuss? Who should I invite as speakers/panelists?

I did this previously and discussed the below in a series of panels (w/ lots of time for Q&A). I was thinking a similar format this time, along with a pair of a "plenaries" (but short talks w/ Q&A).

(Also, the below are on my group's YouTube channel.)

Also, I want to have a "grad fair" - like a career fair, but a place where grad schools from across the country can have "rooms" to answer Q's about their programs, applications, ..

@USC did a virtual career fair in the fall that worked, so I'm building on that framework. 3/N

But these are my ideas. And this should serve the #undergrad community - especially #firstgen undergrads who may not know the ins/outs of the process. What do you want/need? What would make this event useful for you? 4/N
