Get ready for ESEC 2023!
Never been to a professional conference before? Feeling shy about talking to more senior professionals?
This workshop, hosted by Troost ILead will help first- and second-year EngSci students get the most out of their Engineering Science Education Conference (ESEC) experience.
You will learn strategies for networking in a professional setting (with speakers, faculty, and fellow classmates) and knowledge on how and what to prepare for the conference. These skills are more important now than ever in our current online-only circumstances.
Students will learn:
- Networking skills, approaches, & mindsets
- How to prepare for a networking situation
- The art of asking good professional questions
Register for the Prep Workshop here (utorID login required). This event is open to Year 1 and 2 EngSci students only.
Now in its 18th year, this annual conference aims to broaden our students’ horizons through engagement with world leaders in a wide range of sectors related to our program’s subjects.
EngSci students learn about research, education and career opportunities for young engineers from innovators and thought leaders in engineering-related fields.
Speakers share their expertise and career path through presentations and informal networking events.
ESEC 2023 will be held in person with small group “fireside chats”, lectures, and more.
Check the ESEC 2023 website for info on this year’s line-up, how you can prepare, and ways to engage with the speakers.
