UWSP Career Fair - Employers

     
Back to PSChE Career Fair Homepage

Connect with Paper Science and Chemical Engineering Students at the PS&ChE Department Career Fair who are looking for real-world experience. This late afternoon/evening session provides an opportunity for your company to meet students who are looking for a co-op, internship, or permanent employment in the paper and chemical manufacturing industries.

The Career Fair is similar to a trade fair. When you register, you will have a designated table (or two) where students can visit and get to know you and your company while you seek potential employees for your company. In this informal setting, you will be able to meet many of our students and to arrange interviews with those that meet your hiring needs.   

Schedule in-person interviews with students who attend the Career Fair.  This gives your company the opportunity to interview students after meeting them at the Career Fair.  If you want to review students on Handshake ahead of time, please feel free.  We will have interview rooms available the day after the Career Fair, Tuesday, September 24th, 2024 from 8am-5pm. There are a limited number of rooms and therefore, they will be filled on a first come/first served basis. If these rooms become full we do have some options for interview rooms to be available during and the evening of the career fair.    

Please note that participation in the fall UWSP Career Fair does not preclude you from contacting the Paper Science and Chemical Engineering Department and arranging on-campus visits and interviews later in the school year. The Career Fair's purpose is to provide equal interviewing opportunities to as many companies as possible.

Email the Paper Science and Chemical Engineering Department  with any questions.
