CSE Undergrad News

All CSE undergraduates are urged to attend our CSE Internship Panel Event this Thursday, January 10 from 5:30 to 6:30 pm in EEB 105!  Reservations are not required.

The internship panel will feature recent CSE grads from Amazon, Zillow, Google and Microsoft who will provide the insight you need to secure the best-fitting internships, prepare for those internships and know what to expect once you get there.

Additional insight from our expert panel will help you steer your future transition from student to professional in the most efficient and effective way possible.   No CSE undergraduate who wants to maximize their early career impact and jump immediately into the position they desire should miss this one.  Bring your questions!  We will look forward to seeing you next Thursday.
