GEM Student Workshop, Sunday, June 15, 2014

Call for Speakers – GEM Student Tutorials

The GEM student representatives are currently accepting submissions for the 2014 student day tutorials. The meeting will be held on June 15, 2014 in Portsmouth, Virginia.

Tutorials must focus on the listed topics at an introductory level. The list of tutorial topics is provided below. If you will be attending the meeting and would like to present a tutorial, please submit your name, student status (year, anticipated degree, institution and advisor) and the title of the talk that you would like to give. Please include a second choice tutorial topic if you have one. Submissions should be sent to: Roxanne Katus <rkatus@umich.edu> and Ian Cohen <ian.cohen@unh.edu>.

Tutorial requests must be received by Friday March 10, 2014. Speakers will be chosen based on qualifications and demographics. Acceptance notifications will be sent by March 17, 2014.

Call for Applications for GEM Student Representative

Call for Applications for GEM Student Representative Application deadline: June 1, 2014

GEM graduate students are invited to apply for the position of student representative for the 2014-2016 term. There are always two GEM student representatives with overlapping terms.

Interested students should have previously attended at least one GEM summer workshop, be graduate students actively researching in a GEM field, and have at approximately two years left before finishing their degree. The GEM student representatives are responsible for organizing the student tutorial day at the GEM summer workshop, representing students at the GEM steering committee meetings, and coordinating/facilitating other professional and social activities for the GEM student community.

To apply, please submit your name, student status (year/anticipated degree/institution/advisor) and one or two paragraphs describing your vision and qualifications for serving as the GEM student representative. This information will be distributed at the GEM 2014 student tutorial day on June 15, 2014. The new representative will be selected by vote during the GEM 2014 Summer Workshop.

Please submit all applications to Roxanne Katus <rkatus@umich.edu> and Ian Cohen <ian.cohen@unh.edu> by June 1, 2014.
