Graduation is the culmination of a lot of hard work and dedication. As a way of saying “Congratulations” to our graduates, Career Services organized a photo booth to help commemorate the event. With a green screen and choice of eight different Michigan Tech related backgrounds, students, their family, and their friends were invited to create “one last memory” of their time in Houghton.
Check out the results of the photobooth on Flikr.
We were pleased to have one of our Alumni share her stories with our students. Allie Irwin (Engineered Conversations) visited campus to speak with students and faculty about how body language sends messages about listening, importance, honesty, and many other things without us being aware of it.
The summary of her visit is now available for review on: http://www.mtu.edu/career/students/resources/bodylanguage/
One of the Michigan Tech Scholars and Leaders program, Katelynne Bauer, created a profile of some alumni and the different paths a chemical engineering graduate can take.

The date for the Spring 2017 Career Fair has been set. It will be held on the Michigan Technological University campus on Wednesday, February 22, 2017.
Michigan Tech students are invited on an all-expense paid trip to Chicago to visit ArcelorMittal’s largest U.S. steelmaking facility.

It is the leading steel supplier to all major markets, including automotive and construction.
