Join us for our first speaker events of the Fall 2019 semester!

In partnership with the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) and Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN), the Grand Challenge Scholars Program (GCSP) at Arizona State University (ASU) invites you to an engaging speaker series, focusing on the fourteen Grand Challenges for Engineering in the 21st Century.

Esteemed speakers from across the nation will come to ASU to share their expertise in their field, discuss the grand challenges our world faces and answer probing questions on what can be done.

Friday, October 4, 2019, ASU will be hosting a Falling Walls Lab forum that will connect into the Falling Walls Conference held in Berlin, Germany.

 Falling Walls Lab

The Falling Walls Lab is an international forum for the next generation of outstanding innovators and creative thinkers and feeds into the Conference component. Labs are hosted at academic institutions and participants get the opportunity to present their research work, business model or initiative to peers, a high-caliber jury made up of experts from academia and business and the general public – in three minutes each. The winner from the lab will be given the opportunity to present their work in front of a distinguished jury at the conference in November.

Community Outreach and Advocacy for Refugees (COAR) is a student organization that focuses on helping and supporting refugees in the area. Twice a week (Tuesday and Thursday 3:30–4:30 p.m.) the group meets to tutor refugee elementary school students at Crockett Elementary School.

Often times these children fall behind and need extra help, and so we work with the teachers of Crockett to provide personalized tutoring for them! If you are interested in joining please fill out the application or would like more information please email us at asucoar@gmail.com.

Scientific computing has become more prevalent in research over the past decade. This workshop, hosted by ASU Research Computing, aims to help students, staff and faculty members learn the basics of programming in Python.

Are you interested in collaborating on research and/or building your data research skills? Then we want to hear from you!

Tell us about your interests, goals and level of experience so that we can better match you with opportunities in data science.

Based in Hayden Library, the Unit for Data Science and Analytics is launching its Open Lab for the 2019-20 academic year. A weekly event, Open Lab welcomes students of all disciplines and skill levels to engage in data science research and training, collaborate on projects and learn more.

We have ongoing and available projects that engage machine learning, data visualization, text and data mining, network analysis and more.

One of our main goals is to cohort students and set them up with project experience that they can use in their academic and professional careers. All disciplines and skill levels are welcome.

Questions? Need more information? Contact Michael Simeone at michael.simeone@asu.edu.
