Hire a Student
Each year, the
Engineering Career Centre helps employers find students to fill internships and other openings. As an employer, you can get quick access to students ready to put their skills to work for you by contacting the Centre. Whatever the job (big or small, short or longer term) the Centre can help you fill it by introducing you to future Engineering leaders. The Centre's services benefit your business or organization by helping you get dynamic and enthusiastic help.
Various programs are run through the Centre:
