Professional Development Conference
The Professional Development Conference will inscribe the tools undergraduate engineering students need to acquire pivotal career opportunities. All Undergraduate Engineering students at the University of Guelph will be allowed to register, however due to special restrictions we can only accommodate 80 students. The Conference will invite in Engineering Alumni and Successful Engineers to share their experience and advice with students.
Finding employment after graduation is the primary objective of the majority of undergraduate engineering students. However, the job market is inundated with applications from undergraduates and many students are struggling to obtain work in their field of studies.

The ability of students to effectively market themselves and their skills to potential employers and industries is essential to their success in this respect.
Registration Full
