Career Fair & Employee Recruitment Events
Held annually in the fall, this flagship event brings together top companies and talented BME students from both undergraduate and graduate programs. Employers have the opportunity to recruit for full-time, internship, and co-op positions while engaging directly with students who have strong bio-related academic and research backgrounds.
Our spring event combines professional development with targeted recruiting opportunities. Employers can meet students preparing to enter the workforce, while students benefit from workshops, resume reviews, and direct access to hiring representatives from the biotech and MedTech sectors.
