Trine University’s Spring Career Fair drew about 500 students to the Keith E. Busse/Steel Dynamics Inc. Athletic and Recreation Center (ARC) on Feb. 20 to discuss internship and employment opportunities with 105 employers.
“Trine did a great job of hosting. I can only imagine all the hard work that was put in to make the event run so smoothly,” said one of the employment partners. “We had the opportunity to meet a lot of outstanding students and faculty.”
Trine University’s career fairs are part of a multitude of services provided to help students gain practical experience through internships and co-ops as well as help graduates begin successful careers. More than 99 percent of Trine graduates over the past 12 years have been employed or enrolled in graduate school within six months of completing their degree.
