The Zero Experience  is for students who want to make an impact and find their potential. It combines value-packed weekly workshops, fireside chats with diverse guests (like NASA’s Mission Commander for the Hawaii simulation), and an iterative problem-solving model with peers to build future leaders for the big problems we’re facing. Plus if students get busy, they can leave anytime! Applications are closing May 23rd.
