Take the Fast Lane to Your Career!
NPRE invites you to join us Tuesday, September 24, for 2019 SPEED-Interchange.
The Student Professional Excellence in Engineering Development (SPEED)-Interchange event allows you to meet with NPRE alumni and company representatives who come to campus to share with students information on employers, internships, and career opportunities and strategies. This year, we are expecting Exelon Corp., JENSEN HUGHES, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and Sandia National Laboratories.
The event will include a pizza lunch in Room 220 Talbot Laboratory. To join in the lunch, you must REGISTER for SPEED-Interchange. The confirmation email you receive for registering will serve as your lunch ticket, so please remember to bring that with you (you can show it on your smart phone). The registration deadline is September 20.
The SPEED-Interchange guests will hold small group informational sessions from 1:30-3:30 p.m. in various places in Talbot Laboratory as well as a panel session from 4-5 p.m. in 2310 Everitt Laboratory. The panel session will serve as the 596 Graduate Seminar. Light refreshments will follow the panel discussion.
