University of Missouri Fall 2019 College of Engineering Career Fair 

Here at the University of Missouri, we are about five weeks away from our Fall 2019 College of Engineering Career Fair scheduled on Tuesday, Sept. 17 from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the MizzouRec (1000 East Rollins Street, Columbia, MO 65211). Thank you to those of you who have already registered. We are looking forward to having you with us. For those of you who have not yet registered, we sincerely hope you will join us not only for the fair, but for the many events that surround it during the week of Sept. 16-20. Approximately 1,200 students are eagerly waiting to meet you and explore employment and internship possibilities with you, and space is filling up.

In addition to the Career Fair, we have several days full of opportunities for you to interact with our students and for your company to receive enhanced promotion and branding opportunities based on your level of involvement. We hope you will consider purchasing one of our Career Week Packages for both Fall 2019 and Spring 2020 semesters. Each package level saves you at least 20% on a menu of activities during the 2019-2020 academic year to bring you in frequent contact with our product – our outstanding engineers. Company awareness is built through repetition, and we want to ensure that you have many venues and formats in which you can meet with students. You may choose any level of package, all of which also offer you some promotional opportunities at special Career Week events. Of course, you are welcome to make your choices for participation a la carte as well. We know you are all in competition for skilled engineering leaders, and we want to offer you as many chances as possible to meet and talk with our well-trained engineers.
