The GREAT Seminars on Professional Skills for Career Success are sponsored by the Chancellor’s Office, the Penn State Electro-Optics Center and PSNK Career Services to help you learn from professionals about the skills and expectations you will need for a successful career in engineering and related fields.
These will be highly interactive and informative sessions where you will learn with a cohort of students directly from engineering, science and management professionals. They are designed to be interesting and fun with lots of discussion – and there is free food at the end of each session too!
I want to extend a special invitation to a trip to the College of Engineering Career Day at University Park on January 27th.
