Hello! Scientists and engineers of all types are invited to take part in our recurring Alachua County-area public outreach event in November 2016. No experience with public engagement is necessary.
What: "talk science with me" is a public engagement event where pairs of scientists meet the public in coffeehouses, bars, libraries, and even laundromats to have conversations.
How: Sign up for a date, time, and location here: https://ufl.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_6X1CEooWhigYWah
When:
First time participants will be asked to attend a 45-minute orientation Wednesday, November 9th, 3pm and 4:05 pm in Bryant 120
Where: locations around Alachua County: in downtown Gainesville, Archer, Micanopy, Hawthorne, and High Springs.
Who: especially folks who study the ocean, but anyone who does science* research for UF (faculty, grad students, postdocs, research scientists). You'll be paired with another scientist at the same venue.
*including applied sciences (ag, engineering, computer science, you name it.)
Why: to get to know the public and let them get to know us, fulfill the university¹s outreach and Extension mission, and just to talk science!
Please share with colleagues who may be interested!
Questions? Email or call Dr. Katie Stofer, stofer@ufl.edu or (352) 273-3690 or Dr. Cindy Sanders; Sanders1@ufl.edu

Webinar: Tips and Tricks for Applying to Graduate School in the Geosciences
October 27, 2016 3:00 PM EDT
Register at: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/3789123056051038723
Presented by: Dr. Jackie Caplan-Auerbach, Western Washington University
Abstract: The process of applying for a graduate program differs significantly from that of an undergraduate program, but many students are unaware of the difference. For an undergraduate program, students often focus on the school they wish to attend, whereas for graduate study the emphasis will be on the advisor, the research project, and the choice of degree. This webinar addresses many common questions and misconceptions about the grad school application process, including how to identify an appropriate advisor and how to select a university. We’ll discuss tips for writing a personal essay, getting letters of recommendation, and taking the GRE. Finally, we will talk about some of the things students can do as undergraduates to improve their chances at getting into the graduate program of their choice.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar. NOTE: Registration does not confirm or guarantee you will have a spot during the webinar, as we are limited to 100 participants. Webinars are archived for later viewing at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD4D607C2FA317E6D
