    • Student Networking Event

      Time: 5:15-7:15 pm

      Location: Metro W

      The Student Networking special session aims to provide all interested students attending ACC 2024 the opportunity to receive valuable career advice from experts in industry, academia, and national laboratories. Moreover, it seeks to enhance student engagement in the conference and promote awareness of the benefits of involvement in the control community by offering a platform that facilitates connections with peers and the attending professionals. In the first 25 minutes of this structured event, the invited professionals will present their backgrounds and areas of interest.

      This will be followed by 3 rounds of rotating round-table conversations where, in each round, 7-8 students will have the opportunity for open discussion with a professional for 20 minutes before moving to another table. The final 30 minutes are reserved for open social networking to allow students to connect with peers and the remaining invited professionals with whom they did not interact during the round-table discussions. An assortment of snacks will be provided!

      The event will be open to the first 125 students, registered using the link (available from Monday, 17th June, 8:00 am EST): https://forms.office.com/r/qJJjpu9JAN
