Thanks to all who attended! This expo welcomed more than 40 major STEM and Health exhibitors who networked with our students about potential career options, graduate programs and internship opportunities. Careers and Employability staff were also present on the day reviewing resumes, and a professional photographer was on site taking LinkedIn headshots for students.
