Employers: Come engage with top talent and hundreds of students/employers at the School of Engineering Career Fair. This "virtual" career fair is from 11:00 am-3:00 pm on Wednesday, February 24, 2021, hosted on Handshake.

UConn Engineering Undergraduate Students/Graduate Students/Alumni: Since the fair will be held virtually through Handshake, to participate you must register. This will enable you to search for employers and learn about incredible full time or internship/co-op opportunities. Both 1:1 appointments and/or group sessions will be available. We ask that you sign up for sessions in advance, although you can sign up for sessions on the day of the fair as well.

FAQ's
