Mentor Breakfast

FIRST could not exist without our mentors, and we value all the ways you show up and support our teams throughout the year.

As a token of our appreciation, we invite you to start practice day off on a good foot with some fresh donuts and coffee! Stop by our table outside the volunteer lounge on Friday morning.

DATE: Friday, March 22nd
TIME: 8:30am – 9:30am
LOCATION: Outside the Volunteer Lounge at UCSD Liontree Arena

 

Join the San Diego FIRST Mentor Network 

Last fall, we launched the San Diego FIRST Mentor Network on Slack, as a digital community to help foster connection and increase collaboration. This build season, our local mentors found it exceptionally useful to quickly find parts needed from other teams, or to share tools.

To request an invitation to the San Diego FIRST Mentor Network, please fill out the form here.

 

Thank you for all you do!

Women in STEM at San Diego Regional

Women in STEM at San Diego Regional

Are you curious about what a career in STEM fields can look like for you? Do you want to connect with successful women in your field and learn about their experiences and paths to success? Then you won’t want to miss our “Women in STEM” event, exclusively for team members and mentors at the San Diego Regional. 

At this event, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Chat with female STEM professionals about their career paths and experiences.
  • Get inspired by successful women in STEM fields who have overcome challenges and achieved great things.
  • Learn about the different career options available to you in STEM fields, and get advice on how to pursue your dreams.
  • Network with other female students and STEM professionals, making valuable connections that could lead to future opportunities.

And that’s not all! To make this event even more special, we’ll be treating all attendees to dessert. You’ll be able to indulge in sweet treats and get the information and inspiration you need to take your future to the next level.

Though the event is focused around female experiences in STEM, everyone is welcome to attend. We can’t wait to see you there and help you on your journey to success!

DATE: Saturday, March 23rd
TIME: 1:15pm – 2:30pm
