The Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate (DHS S&T) is hosting a booth for this weekend's K-12 STEM (Science Technology Engineering Math) festival. They are offering the opportunity for a handful of START students (interns, FIRE, minor) to join the booth! Dr. Reggie Brothers, head of S&T, will be delivering a keynote and will spend some time in the booth as well.
In the booth you will be joined by some key DHS people, so it will be a great networking opportunity as well as an excellent way to represent START as a DHS Center of Excellence. You will be asked to be a warm, welcoming face, and talk about your love of science/data/investigating/technology/etc.
It is at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center
Please let Jessica Rivinius know if you are available even if for a couple of hours:
- Saturday, April 16: 9am-1pm
- Saturday, April 16: 1pm-5pm
- Sunday, April 17: 9am-1pm
She will be happy to provide volunteers with a t-shirt and a START mug. 5-10 volunteers needed. Email Jessica at
rivinius@start.umd.edu and she will put you in touch with the DHS person coordinating the event.
