PROMOTE A STUDENT RESEARCH POSITION
If you are seeking students to support your research activities, the CDCR is happy to promote those opportunities to students. You can submit details about your research assistant(s) needs which will be posted to the CDCR website and distributed as a notification to qualified student candidates.
REQUEST A CLASS PRESENTATION
The Office of Career Development and Corporate Relations seeks to equip and empower engineering students to discover, develop, and launch professional experiences and purposeful careers. We do so by providing customized, student-centered career coaching and resources, and cultivating industry-focused partnerships.
Career development frequently takes place outside the walls of the career development office where students interact with faculty instructors, staff advisors, work supervisors, and many others who impact their lives in meaningful ways. We hope you will partner with us as we seek to equip students to discover, develop, and launch purposeful careers.
Need to cancel class? We can cover it for you. Engineering Career Coaches are pleased to offer a variety of career development topics that can be facilitated in a class setting.
In order to ensure presenter availability, requests must be submitted at least two weeks prior to the preferred date.
REQUEST AN INDUSTRY SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT
If you would like to request a company speaker to connect what students are learning in the classroom to what they will see in the field, we are happy to facilitate a connection. Please submit your request at least two - three weeks in advance of the preferred date.
