Students,
Join the Program on Climate Change Undergraduate Cohort for a dual event on April 29th— the City Nature Challenge & Graduate School Panel.
This Earth Month, the Program on Climate Change (PCC) and UW Biology experts are excited to bring the global City Nature Challenge to the UW on Monday, April 29th, 11:00am-1:00pm! Contribute to a worldwide citizen science initiative by documenting wild flora and fauna on iNaturalist and explore the rich biodiversity of our campus. We will start at the UW Biology Greenhouse with short presentations on climate change and biodiversity and then go on our 1.5 hour outdoor walk. Please ensure you are dressed suitably for the weather conditions and contact Hema at hema89@uw.edu with any questions. Don’t miss out and sign up at https://tinyurl.com/uwnaturechallenge to explore and help Seattle-Tacoma metropolitan shine in this year’s collective biodiversity monitoring efforts!

Additionally, join us for an engaging panel discussion on pursuing graduate school within the climate science field! This event will be held on April 29th (same day!) from 4:30-6:00 pm at the Life Sciences Building, Room 110.
Students will have the opportunity to hear from current graduate and PhD students across multiple disciplines about their experiences on preparing and applying for graduate school.
We will then break into small group discussions to facilitate one-on-one conversations with panelists and Q&A on the application process, funding, recommendations, tips for success, and other topics of interest.
Free pizza and refreshments will also be provided during this event.
We hope to see you at one or both of these events!
