EUS Academic Week

The Engineering Undergraduate Society (EUS) is holding its annual A-week—a week-long series of talks by professors, and other faculty events aimed at promoting post-graduate career options for engineers.

On Tuesday evening, the EUS will host a wine and cheese networking event for engineers interested in careers in management.  Three speakers with degrees in engineering who entered the field of management will speak on their experiences. A second wine and cheese, held on Thursday, will focus on professional degrees like medicine and law. Both events will be held in Frank Dawson Adams Building Room 5 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

On Wednesday at noon, Professir In-Ho Jung from the faculty of mining and materials engineering will speak on his research, “Recycling of Rare Earth Elements from NdFeB permanent magnets.” The talk will be held in FDA Room 5, from 12 p.m. – 1 p.m.

McGill Techfair

The McGill Techfair, an annual technology career fair for students in engineering, computer science, and the physical sciences, will be held on Wednesday. A joint effort between the EUS, the Engineering Career Center (ECC), and the Computer Science Student Society (CSUS), the event aims to help undergraduates network with employers.

Corporate attendees at the last Techfair in Fall 2010 included: Bombardier Aerospace, Electronic Arts, IBM, Microsoft, and Research in Motion.

The fair will be held from 9:30 p.m  to 3:30 p.m. in New Residence Hall.
