Student Workshop
Education is vital to the Directed Energy community. Fostering the professional growth of current workers in the field and
increasing the number of young, new members in the community are important DEPS educational goals. This was the nineteenth
Workshop in a series of DE Student Workshops to advance these goals. The
Workshops consider current and future Directed Energy education programs around the country. Support for the Workshop is provided
by the Directed Energy Joint Transition Office and by DEPS.
The scope of the Workshop included:
- Graduate/post-graduate studies and technical vocational training
- Professional continuing education
- Student motivators (scholarships, fellowships, recognitions)
- Summer internship programs
- Curriculum development
Additionally, the Student Workshop offered a sampling of the work currently being pursued
by students, especially those supported by JTO internships or scholarships.
The Workshop will be held in parallel with sessions of the
2020 Annual Directed Energy Science and Technology Symposium.
Proceedings of the Workshop will be included in the unclassified Symposium proceedings. Proceedings from
previous Workshops are available through the DEPS online store.
Roundtable Reception*
For the second year, DEPS hosted a Roundtable Reception on Wednesday March 10 from 1730-1900 at the Thayer Hotel. This event was designed to
give students and early career professionals (ECPs) the opportunity to network and connect with some of directed energy's esteemed leaders.
Whether currently on the job hunt, seeking advice about professional growth, or simply hoping to learn about possible career paths,
this event was an excellent opportunity to expand both the knowledge base and the network of contacts for our student attendees.
Registration
Registration for the Workshop is closed.
