This series is open to all undergraduate and graduate students, and is designed especially for students conducting (or interested in conducting) STEM research. These seminars are opportunities to learn about research being pursued around campus and to ask questions about getting involved in research.

This event counts as an Honors Event, category: Career, Professional & Personal Development and Academic & Interdisciplinary Engagement. If you require an accommodation to participate in this event, please contact Jodi Eskin by March 27th.

The résumé, cover letter, and application all serve the purpose of getting you the interview, and the interview is your chance to actually get the job. In this presentation you learn about what to expect in an interview and how to prepare to answer standard and complex questions in a professional way that makes you stand out and land the job, internship, or experience you are seeking.

In 1838, 272 slaves were sold from Maryland to Louisiana to save Georgetown University from financial ruin. In 2017 the university announced that reparations to the descendants of these slaves would be paid. To date this has not happened. Please join us on Tuesday, April 9, 2019 from 2:00 to 3:30 pm in HTB 227 to learn more about the reparation efforts from Georgia Goslee, Esq., who with her team, is representing the descendants of Isaac Hawkins, the first slave named on the bill of sale. We will also hear from Professor Thomas Craemer who worked with Atty. Goslee on this effort.
