Alan Nursall, President & CEO of TELUS World of Science and host of the Alan Nursall Experience on Daily Planet, will be joining us at The Shack to speak about local opportunities in interdisciplinary science education as a UAlberta alumnus. He will also be taking questions so students can actively capitalize on Alan's expertise.
After Alan's talk and the questions period, The Shack will have our annual Open House, featuring displays of student presentations and various workshops we offer throughout the semester, as well as a networking period for makers and students to engage with each other with refreshments and snacks. Later in the evening, the Observatory will be open and we can view the stars to conclude the event.
