We are pleased to publish the Research Symposium information session schedule from our industry partners. See below! All students and faculty are encouraged to attend these sessions, which will be conveniently held in Hampton Hall. Presenting a poster on your work April 17, 1:30-3:30pm is a great way to dialogue with these industry leaders. With the changing recruiting schedule, industry members have asked to engage students earlier than traditional fall career fairs. This symposium is our answer to their request. Remember your network is your net worth. So even if you know where you will work, why not increase your value through the relationships you build at the Research Symposium?
