More than 100 companies and agencies will attend the Spring Engineering and Computing Career Fair, set for 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 11, at the Kansas Union. Students should review the complete of employers and study those of interest prior to arriving at the event.

Students can gather information about a wide variety of companies, network with industry representatives, and learn about potential internship and employment opportunities. Students should dress professionally and bring multiple copies of their resume to share with prospective employers. For more on what to expect and what employers look for, watch the video from an earlier career fair.

The career fair is open to all KU students, but employers will primarily focus on making connections with students in engineering, computing and the hard sciences.

Students are also invited to attend Trivia Game Night starting at 6 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 10, in LEEP 2, room G411.
