future research directions in computer architecture, mentoring and 
networking sessions with graduate students and professors, and 
discussions on applying to graduate school and navigating the 
architecture research landscape effectively.

studies in Computer Architecture, but who do not have an extensive 
network or guidance to make an informed decision on the topic.

graduates who are currently in industry but are considering applying to 
graduate school.
