Speed Networking

On Tuesday, March 23rd at 5:25 pm, the Faculty of Science will host its first Speed Networking event. Undergraduate and graduate students will meet 27 Waterloo Science alumni during a fast-paced, career-focused, interactive hour.

These alumni, representing traditional and non-traditional science careers, will share their personal work-related experiences, such as how career decision-making, networking, and even serendipity led them to do what they are doing now.

What is Speed Networking and how does it work?
After a brief introduction to the event, students will move from EIT 1015 to the building's second level where 20 tables will be located around the stairwell.  At 5-7 minute intervals, students will switch stations. This will provide an opportunity for students to meet with a wide range of professionals.

After the formal speed networking period, an informal time for mingling and refreshments will offer students an opportunity to continue talking to those in professions of their particular interest.

To RSVP for this event, please contact Bonnie Fretz (bfretz@uwaterloo.ca).
