Office Hours & College and Career Spotlights
6-7 p.m. on alternating Thursdays
Hosted by WAS HQ on Zoom, Office Hours are a place to ask clarifying questions, chat with peers, and seek out guidance on WAS activities. Every other week, we will feature WAS alumni who are currently working in the STEM industry and scholars will be able to learn about life after WAS, ask questions about college, internships, and the space industry in general. Each is elective and scholars are welcome to join in as they are able. The date and link to access office hours will be posted in Program Announcements on the WAS student course website and recordings will be shared after each session.
