This event connects participants with current engineering students, engineering career professionals and staff members while providing an opportunity to explore engineering majors and programs of their choice. 

The event will be from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET.

Those arriving Oct. 15 are invited to attend an evening welcome assembly inside Dudley Hall and Lambertus Hall. Registrants may meet with representatives from engineering schools, organizations and clubs to discuss various engineering opportunities.
