This is a two-day event on Friday and Saturday, February 23rd and 24th which will take place at various locations on Purdue's campus. Please view the new GLS website<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsites.google.com%2Fview%2Fgls2024%3Fusp%3Dsharing&data=05%7C02%7Cengr-boilerbuzz-list%40ecn.purdue.edu%7C76ef70467c7a4412b3e508dc245cca6e%7C4130bd397c53419cb1e58758d6d63f21%7C0%7C0%7C638425228164567219%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=6YwiHPCtoo9uhsMxpjcsiF46KQwdjlCo541HXHe74qM%3D&reserved=0> and read further in this email for registration information.

The Giant Leaps Summit will unite Purdue University, the Department of Defense, and the space industry to discuss the future of our national defense in the ever-changing space domain. The summit will begin on Friday, February 23rd at 6:00 pm with a keynote from Purdue President Mung Chiang. The bulk of the event will take place on Saturday the 24th beginning at 9:00 am with an opening ceremony. We will immediately move into an unclassified scene setter by Col Marqus Randall, Commander of the National Space Intelligence Center. At 10:00 am, the commander of Air Force Global Strike Command, General Thomas Bussiere, will deliver a keynote on strategic deterrence in space. As the day goes on there will be many more panels and briefs on topics such as near-future research, great power competition, tactical leadership, women in space, and industry developments. We have a wide array of guests who you won't want to miss. But that's not all, we will also be hosting an invite-only career fair for a limited number of students. This career fair will have several industry leaders such as Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman.

InnovateHer 2024
March 2 and 3
8:00 am Saturday to 6:45 pm Sunday

Interested in solving women's issues?

Want to learn how to code? All experience levels welcomed.

InnovateHer, a 36-hour hackathon celebrating marginalized gender and racial identities in technology is taking place on March 2nd and 3rd at Stewart Center! It is open to everyone - yes, men as well - in all stages of their coding journey. Organized by the Purdue Student Government in collaboration with 7 Purdue student organizations devoted to advancing women in STEM - Girls Who Code College Loops, Society of Woman Engineers (SWE), Women in Technology (WiT), Phi Sigma Rho, Computer Science Women's Network (CSWN), Women in Cybersecurity (WiCyS), and Purdue Women in Science Program (WISP), InnovateHer's mission is to educate all on the beauty and importance of diversity and inclusion in STEM.

If you have no coding experience, don't worry! We will be organizing a series of technical workshops to familiarize you with all you will need to know to successfully complete your InnovateHer projects. But it's not all just code, code, code - we will also conduct workshops discussing the issue of diversity and inclusion in technology, providing a look into the struggles women and other marginalized communities face in male-dominated spaces like STEM, making InnovateHer a holistic experience benefiting any and all participating.

InnovateHer is sponsored by Wolfram Language and Wabash amongst others, and will also host officials from Meta, Oculus, Wal-Mart, and Microsoft in a series of panels and talks, which will be an immersive learning experience for all! Be prepared for more than just learning, though, fun is definitely included, with stargazing and s'mores breaks!
