OceanHackWeek Fellows Program#

Are you interested in helping at the OceanHackWeek workshop? Would you like to host your own OceanHackWeek style event? Then the OceanHackWeek Fellows Program is for you!

Through this program, fellows will learn about all aspects of organizing an OceanHackWeek (OHW) workshop, from logistics to curriculum planning. Fellows will be immersed in the OHW philosophy and help support our mission to meet, collaborate, and learn at the intersection of ocean and data sciences. After this program, fellows will be equipped to host their own OHW style events.
