Questions we might try to address
(students should let us know what they’re interested in discussing)
- What are the different topics or subfields that make up astronomy research?
- What are the big questions in astronomy today?  What are some of the “smaller” questions?
- How are researchers trying to answer these questions?
- What kind of “tools” should a young astronomer have? How can you identify interesting research areas/questions/projects?
- How can you get and stay informed about astronomy research?
- How can you get involved in research?
