Fall 2023 STEM Expo Sees Continued Growth
Last month, the Fall 2023 STEM Expo broke records again! STEM Careers, Internships & Co-ops beat their previous employer attendee record by 5 with 135 companies and organizations in attendance. Some notable new employer attendees include J.M. Smucker Company, Sherwin-Williams Company, Swagelok, The Lincoln Electric Company, First National Bank, JMT and Real Alloy. Additionally, we are grateful to our sponsors who are all returning for the 2023-2024 year: Butech Bliss, Howmet Aerospace, Ultium Cells, Vallourec and Steel Equipment Specialists!
Student attendance saw a large jump as well! A total of 817 students and alumni came out to network with employers. This is a large increase from the Fall 2022 event with 603 students and alumni. This exciting attendance number also reflects student and alumni attendance prior to the pandemic. During Falls 2017 and 2019, attendance was at an all-time high of 835. We hope to beat 835 next fall!
Thank you to our employer sponsors and to all of the employers who attended in support of our students. We truly appreciate these relationships. Additionally, thank you to the staff and volunteers who helped make this event a success. As always, our hope is that students and employers make these important connects to help students gain experience and provide employers with our talent.
Save the date for the Spring 2024 STEM Expo on February 29, 2024!
