Engineering: Industry Expo & Fun Events

There are a lot of exiting events that are coming soon in the Engineering LLC! Today (March 1^st) was the Spring Industry Expo, held in the Wisconsin Room of the Student Union! The Industry Expo is where representatives from many different companies from the local area come in and set up booths in the Union. Engineering students then come and talk to these representatives to either get their foot in the door for possible internships or Co-Ops in the future, or to hand in a resume in order to be looked at right away for a summer internship or Co-Op. Either way, Engineering students are receiving excellent exposure into the world of Engineering, and what it has to offer. Some students may even go on to become one of the representatives that people talk to at these Industry Expo events! Coming soon is the College of Engineering and Applied Science Alumni Dinner! This is another excellent way for Engineering students to get exposure to real world engineering, as they will have an opportunity to talk with engineers in the area who have been in their shoes and who are now building their careers from their education at UWM. The other event that is coming later in the semester is the Six Flags Trip! A date has been set for April 21^st for this event. One of our very own professors within the college of Engineering, Andrew Dressel, will give a short presentation to students who will be going on the trip about the physics of rollercoasters. Students are in for a day of fun at the theme park afterwards. Fun and educational! We are very exited for what is in store for our engineers for the rest of this semester!
