The College of Engineering and Computing was pleased to welcome several outstanding industry leading companies to campus this year for a wide variety of classroom visits, tabling events, student organization meetings, and visits with faculty. We are grateful for and deeply appreciative of the time, insights, and unique perspectives offered by these professionals. Direct interaction with individuals working in the field gives CEC students invaluable experiences, and exposes them to real-life applications of classroom work and further exemplifies the many exciting opportunities available with an engineering or computing degree.
Check out the “Spring Semester Partners” section below for a full listing of companies who generously supported CEC during the Spring semester.

Thank you again to all our partners. We look forward to an even more eventful calendar of events in the coming Fall semester. More details can be found below.
Senior Design Projects
All CEC students are required to complete a two-semester capstone project or Senior Design Project. Students partner in groups to research and solve a specific engineering or computing challenge. CEC is seeking industry partners interested in presenting one of their design challenges as a Senior Design Project. Projects typically kick-off in August and end in late April. Hosting a Senior Design team is a fantastic opportunity to build your company's brand with students and get a fresh perspective on solutions for real-world challenges your company is actually facing. It is also a chance to get to know the CEC students in depth and assess their potential for joining your company. More information can be found here.
Living Learning Communities (LLC)
First year CEC students can elect to live in the Advancing Women in Engineering and Software at Miami (AWESoM) LLC or the Guys in Engineering and Computing (GiEC) LLC. These students all live in the same dorm to help build community and support. There are planned monthly activities in these communities that can include field trips, speakers, and other fun and informative adventures. Companies are encouraged and invited to host any of these activities to begin building their brand with these students as they begin their academic careers.
Company Day in CEC
CEC Days for your company are scheduled at your convenience and can also be combined with hosting a student organization meeting. Company reps can table in the CEC lobby while also conducting classroom visits to talk about the company. Companies will often table for three to four hours anytime after 11:00am, and often bring food items to facilitate student interaction and conversation. There is no cost to table or visit classrooms.
Tours
Students have enjoyed several site tours in the Spring Semester and they are hoping to visit other area companies to see engineering and computing in-action.

| All first year CEC students take CEC 111 - Imagination Ingenuity Impact. Students in this class explore engineering and computing and engage in hands-on, interdisciplinary design that addresses societal and environmental challenges.
To help students learn more about career options in engineering and computing, CEC 111 will host Career Exploration Panels. The goal is to have four professionals on each virtual panel. Each panel will last about one hour. The professionals will be virtual and do not need to give a formal presentation. The students will ask questions to guide the conversation.
If you are interested in speaking to the students for about one hour on Monday, October 30 or Tuesday, October 31, please complete this form.
