Introducing “REEU Ready” Workshop Series

We’d like to introduce REEU Ready?, a workshop series designed to help REEU students and other interested learners develop useful research and professional skills.

This Month’s Topic: “Navigating Conferences“, led by Karissa Palmer & Taylor Apple, Ph.D. students in the ALEC Department at Texas A&M.

However, this workshop is open to all student classifications, whether it’s their first time attending a conference or they’re looking to refine their approach, this session will provide practical tips and smart strategies to make the most of their conference experience.
