This year’s conference theme is “Maximize your Potential by Mastering Your Soft Skills.” The conference is part of a year-long professional development program that challenges students to engage in Projects (research and practical), Internships (paid and unpaid), Experiences (formal and informal), and Shadowing opportunities (P.I.E.S.). Each year students are assigned a book related to the conference theme. This year’s book is “Emotional Intelligence 2.0” by T. Bradberry and J. Greaves.
