Industry Opportunities

Professional Events

Day with Industry is a career fair that happens before Purdue’s engineering career fair,

Industrial Roundtable. PSWE will be working with other minority engineering organizations (National

Society of Black Engineers, Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers, the Society of Mexican American

Engineers and Scientists, and the Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers) to plan this career fair that

gathers a diverse group of engineering students at Purdue. This year, Day with Industry will be in-person

with a pending hybrid option based on demand.

Networking Night is an networking and professional seminar where students have a chance to

learn professional skills from company members and talk one-on-one with company representatives.

Company representatives have the chance to interact with both PSWE members and other engineering

students. The event focuses on preparing students for industry and can be a great method of networking for

both students and companies. Students have the option to sign up for a half-hour virtual mock interview

with a company representative where they practice questions that might be asked during a real interview.

Evening with Engineers is an informal networking event where students get the opportunity to

meet with recruiters in a relaxed environment prior to the EXPO Career Fair. Students can have their

resume critiqued and practice their interview skills through mock interviews. Companies can benefit from

this event by having the opportunity to talk in-depth with prospective candidates in this intimate

environment. This is an evening event with a reception or dinner. Please reach out if your company is

interested in speaking at the event.
