Students Explore Careers by Shadowing Alumni

Biology-CS major Amy Rose Lazarte 鈥�19 shadowed NASA systems engineer Arwen Dav茅 鈥�89 to learn more about careers in science and engineering.

students are finding new opportunities to explore careers before they graduate, thanks to an initiative at the Center for Life Beyond .

More than 100 ies participated in the college’s Winter Shadows program, which pairs students with alumni, parents, and friends of the college who work in their field of interest. The students spent anywhere from two to 10 days at the jobsite getting their hands dirty and learning more about everything from particle physics to photojournalism.

Biology/CS major Amy Rose Lazarte ’19 spent three days shadowing Arwen Davé ’89, a mechanical/systems engineer at the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain Park, California. Amy Rose explored a botany lab where biologists see how plants will react to zero gravity and low light and a robotics lab where Arwen is working on the next Mars rover.
