Spotlight on Upcoming Events
Joint Applied Physics Lab Women in Technology (AWiT) and BWS SWE meeting
Thursday, September 8th, from 6-7:30pm EST
AWiT and SWE-BWS will be hosting a joint meeting at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, MD this September! Our guest speakers, Dr. Nancy Chabot and Dr. Elena Adams, will provide an overview of NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART), the world’s first full-scale mission to test technology for defending Earth against potential asteroid or comet hazards. APL played a critical role in developing and executing this mission.
Following the talk, there will be an opportunity for AWiT and SWE-BWS members to network.
This meeting will be hybrid, with an opportunity to attend in-person or via Zoom.
Attendees will receive Zoom information after registering for the event. Please visit
