The Daily Bruin

We are a group of students trying to get feedback on a new website we are developing in our Business 250 class.

Our project, Friends@Fox, has been created with the purpose of helping you make friends on campus through an easy-to-use website platform. Our goal is to help you meet new people within your major and venture outside to gain new perspectives.

Please help us by filling out this survey. Thank you!

The Zed Factor Fellowship invites all students who are interested in aerospace to apply for its 2023 fellowship program.

The Zed Factor Fellowship is an aerospace internship and community outreach program for undergraduate students hailing from historically excluded communities and backgrounds.

Students selected for the program will receive a 10-week paid summer or fall fellowship. The program encourages students in all majors, including STEM, business/marketing, communications/journalism, policy/pre-law, humanities, and social sciences to apply.

Founded by a group of aerospace professionals from diverse backgrounds, the Zed Factor Fellowship empowers and engages learners and aspiring space and aviation professionals through hands-on, practical experiences working in and contributing to the leading companies of the aerospace community.

In addition to the internship placement, students will receive mentorship from an executive and young professional in their field, and carry out a funded space- or aviation-related community engagement project.

Applications are being accepted for placement with leading space and aviation companies for internships beginning in late spring/early summer 2023. The application deadline is Monday, Jan. 2.

Additionally, we are hosting an information session Wednesday, Nov. 2, for students to learn more about the fellowship and how to apply. Fill out this form to register for the session.
