Engineering Exploration Night connects engineering alumni and students to discuss engineering careers and fields. This event provides a fun, fast-paced way for students and alumni to build connections.

Information for alumni
Alumni will connect with engineering students to share their professional insights and experiences. Current students will have the opportunity to practice their networking skills while learning more about the engineering profession. They will discover how alumni are using their degrees and explore new and exciting career paths.
Alumni will have the opportunity to:
- Mentor students pursuing a degree in engineering
- Share experiences as a professional engineer
- Answer students' questions about engineering fields and professional careers
Each year, we seek 40+ engineering alumni from all disciplines. If you are interested in participating, contact Michelle Reichelt, latham2@uw.edu.
