Student Days at the 2018 SIAM Annual Meeting is a day for students and about students. Organizers have got it all covered this year, with activities and sessions where students can meet with both peers and professionals in their field, participate in a career fair, attend an information session on hot areas for jobs and research, and network with SIAM Student Chapters from all over the world.
If you plan to attend Student Days or the SIAM Annual Meeting, you can reserve your room at the DoubleTree Hotel Portland, Courtyard by Marriott Portland Downtown or Crowne Plaza Hotel/Portland Downtown Convention Center now. The hotels have a limited number of rooms available at special rates for students. The deadline to make hotel reservations will be in June 11, 2018. Since reduced rate student rooms often sell out prior to the deadline, we recommend that you make your reservations early!
If you’re looking for a roommate, want to connect with other attendees, etc, please RSVP on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/events/473523963029307/
Student Days 2018 will also feature the Student Chapter Meeting with SIAM Leadership. This meeting gives faculty advisors and student chapter representatives the opportunity to meet with key decision makers to discuss ideas for improving student chapters and ways that SIAM can meet the needs of current and future student members all over the world. Each chapter selects one student member to attend the event as its chapter representative.
