Political SCIENCE

Thursday, Oct 18th at 7:30pm

Located in Izone

Committee for Political Engagement, a nonpartisan organization focused on raising political awareness on the UR Campus, is collaborating with iZone to organize an event called Political SCIENCE, which explores the intersection between political science and STEM majors. The goal of this event is to bring together two academic fields that do not often have much chance to intersect on campus. At the event, people from all majors will be split into teams to brainstorm solutions in a variety of fields: healthcare, artificial intelligence, defense, and applied science. BMES needs to send 3-6 members to the event! Sign up to attend here!
