Professional Development

Guest Speakers from Industry:

MEP frequently hosts Industry professionals to be guest speakers, to address career opportunities. These individuals have their expenses underwritten by corporate support, or, in some cases, pay their own way to spend quality time with MEP students. Our guests share thoughts regarding industrial expertise and personal insights relating to life after college.

Regional Plant Tours:

Exposure to industrial working environments is essential in the development of successful engineering students.

Internships:

Provide students with an opportunity to gain work experience with the industry while pursuing their degrees.

MEP Student Advisory Board:

This group, made up of officers from SBETA, SHPE, and AISES, is designed to be a sounding board for MEP’s annual programming and activities.

Personal Growth Seminars:

One priority of the engineering student services office is to offer opportunities for professional development. Dress for success, resume workshops, business etiquette, interview workshops, and dining protocol are just a few of the “student friendly” seminars facilitated by the multicultural engineering program.

Mentor/Mentee Program:

The objective of this program is to provide a personal support group for MEP freshmen. Planned activities bring freshmen together with upperclassmen who provide advice and encouragement.
