Our regular professional meetings are held on Thursday evenings in Gowen 301 at 5:30 pm and lasts approximately one hour.
In each meeting, one or more professionals from the government, private sector, or public accounting share their knowledge and experience. Topics range from understanding career fields and opportunities to more technical topics. Following each meeting there is time to socialize and network. Light food and drinks will be served and members, pledges, professionals, faculty, and others can mingle informally. Our plan for professional activities during the upcoming quarter is shown below:
