DEI EMPLOYER SHOWCASE
Four student organizations are hosting the College of Engineering and Computing's first DEI Employer Showcase to celebrate Engineers' Week on Tuesday, February 21, 2023 from 4:00-6:00.

Companies are invited to participate in the DEI Employer Showcase to build their brand with the CEC students, share information about their company, promote current and future internships and full-time roles, and support CEC's diverse student organizations.

The event will be set up similar to a traditional career fair with each company reserving one table and students coming to the tables to learn more about the companies.

This event is hosted by and supports the four diverse CEC organizations:
oSTEM
Society of Women Engineers - SWE
National Society of Black Engineers - NSBE
Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers - SHPE

Cost is $350 for each company to attend and includes one table and space for two company representatives.
If you are interested in participating, please contact Colleen Bush at bushc4@miamioh.edu
ALUMNI & FRIENDS CONFERENCE
The 2023 CEC Alumni & Friends Conference is our annual showcase of some of the best and brightest
alumni and friends of the College. Taking place on Friday, May 5th, this year’s conference is set to
highlight our theme of Unity, Purpose & Collaboration to support the academic, learning, and career endeavors of all 2,000 plus undergraduate students, almost 100 graduate students and over 12,000 living alumni.
There are many options available to support the event and to get in front of both CEC students and alumni.  Please contact Colleen Bush at bushc4@miamioh.edu to learn how you can be a part of the Conference.
UPSKILLING



Are you looking for courses and workshops to educate your employees in exactly what you need them to know?

Do you want to add new courses to your current upskill course lineup?


The State of Ohio offers an easy and economical way to upskill your workforce.  Companies can apply for Ohio TechCred for their incumbent and new employees and Ohio will pay for the cost of the courses.  TechCred funding is open and can be used to fund courses starting as soon as January.
CEC currently offers advanced manufacturing, materials evaluation, regulatory affairs, and data science courses and workshops that pair with Ohio TechCred.  We are always looking for ways to share the faculty expertise with the community.  Customizing courses for your employees is a great way to quickly educate them on the topics that are relevant to their work and perfect for Ohio TechCred funding.
CEC can help and work with you to develop courses customized to your needs and Ohio TechCred can pay for those courses.
With CEC and Ohio TechCred, you can receive custom education at no charge.
Please contact Colleen Bush at bushc4@miamioh.edu if you would like to learn more and talk about potential education collaborations.
