Come enjoy a snack and beverage and meet other student attendees at the Social Hour hosted by the RAS Student Activities Committee! As a student, it can be overwhelming and hard to network at the conference, especially if you are attending the conference without an advisor, labmates, or colleagues. Attend the SAC social hour to meet other student attendees before the conference begins to make it easier to network and engage in thoughtful conversations on the future of robotics and automation throughout the rest of the conference.

There is NO CHARGE for this event, however space is limited. Please register in advance here: https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/68bbb942079c4dacbf0f4aa531ebe568
