SU Campion Ballroom
When: Tuesday, May 14th, 2019, 6:00pm – 8:00pm
Where: Campion Ballroom, Seattle University
Seattle University (SU) is hosting an engineering mentor night for their students on Tuesday, May 14th from 6 to 8 pm and they are particularly seeking mentors in Mechanical, Electrical, Computer and Civil Engineering. The event will be hosted in the SU Campion Ballroom.
The event will see the students rotate among tables with the mentors for discussions. To facilitate the discussions, mentors are asked to bring a sample of work (reports, photos, drawings, etc.) to help the students better understand what they might do in different disciplines of engineering.
Mentors will be sent final details, directions, campus map and parking passes a week prior to the event. Thank you for volunteering and giving your time and talent to encourage our next generation of engineers! For questions please contact Andrew Gall, the PSEC SU Mentor Night Volunteer Coordinator at: Andrew.Gall@PACCAR.com.

Our friends at Highline College are hosting our latest (and last of the program year) Mentor Night. If you are an engineering student there it is a good way to meet and network with local engineers. If you are a local engineer the PSEC is always looking for volunteer mentors to spend an evening with the next generation, describing what you do and giving advice.
The Highline event will be May 22nd from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
If you’d like to attend as a mentor, please register on our Eventbrite site and come ready to talk a bit about what you do and answer questions from eager students.

Natalie Salazar, a student at Everett Community College and member of the SWE student chapter writes in to inform us of a Mentor Night volunteer opportunity:
As a member of EvCC’s Society of Women Engineers, I’m happy to invite you to our annual Dinner with Industry as an Engineering/Computer Science Professional.
This is an amazing opportunity for engineering students here at the college to meet with experienced professionals like you to really learn about what the engineering/CS world offers outside of college. Sharing your hard work and experience is extremely valuable to students who are still in the beginning stages of their schooling. In return, dinner is on us!
Here are the event details:
SWE Dinner with Industry
Thursday, April 12th from 6-8pm
Everett Community College, Jackson Center 101All engineering and computer science professionals are welcome, so feel free to invite any co-workers/colleagues/friends in these fields. We are also in great need of more software and electrical engineers, so the more the merrier.
Looking forward to meeting you!
Best,
