Engineer for a Day- Feb. 22nd
This is a great event that allows you to shadow an Engineer for a day. You will start your day off at UTSA @ 8am for a Proclamation breakfast and then you will travel to the engineering firm that they have partnered you with. This is a free event. Breakfast and lunch is provided.
The catch: you have to provide your own transportation. Since students will be going to many different firms, SEA cannot provide transportation to and from the event.
