2010 Student Programs
Tuesday, February 16
Student Engineer Day
The event gives collegiate students the opportunity to spend a day on the job shadowing the routines of a practicing engineer in the student’s field of choice. This event provides the student with insight into the engineering field, and provides companies with insight into potential engineering talent. This event is “broad in scope” yet allows for individualization by placing students with engineers who have similar interests.
Registration deadline is February 1.
