Outreach Opportunities
CITI BOCES Career Connections (Virtual)
We are partnering with CITI BOCES to offer meaningful, career-specific connections for students across New York state and are looking for volunteers to participate. We will be live streaming to middle and high school students, providing insight on our day to day career lives as well as providing background information about our education, job search, and career goals. At the end of the short (~10 minute) presentation, the students will be able to ask questions about your experiences and future plans. We'd love to hear from women of varying experience levels and disciplines of engineering - this provides the students with a more thorough understanding of the process involved with becoming an engineer.
This opportunity will be facilitated through BOCES. Volunteers must be SWE members. The date and time will be flexible to accommodate schedules but participants must be able to commit roughly 30minutes during business hours.
If you are interested in giving back to students through presentations, please let us know.
