This fall, Michigan Tech is thrilled to welcome back Michigan Day — an exciting event made possible through our continued partnership with the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) and InvestUP. Building on the success of previous years, this collaboration aims to connect students directly with the people and possibilities shaping Michigan’s economic future.
Hosted as part of our broader Career Fest series, Michigan Day offers an immersive experience for students eager to explore their career options. It’s not just about job openings—it’s about helping students discover where their passions and skills can make the greatest impact right here in Michigan. Through conversations, presentations, and interactive exhibits, students gain real insight into diverse industries across the state.
Beyond career exploration, Michigan Day celebrates the unique communities and lifestyles that make Michigan such a special place to live. From the scenic beauty of the Upper Peninsula to the vibrant urban centers downstate, the event showcases how professional growth and quality of life can go hand in hand. Students learn firsthand about the hidden gems and well-known destinations that could someday become their new hometowns.
Central to the success of Michigan Day is the participation of forward-thinking employers who want to share their stories and opportunities. By connecting directly with students, these organizations help demystify the job market, highlight emerging roles, and inspire the next generation of talent to envision their future careers in Michigan.
We warmly invite your company to join us in Houghton, MI for this special day of networking and discovery. Come share what makes your organization unique and help show our students that building a meaningful, fulfilling career in Michigan isn’t just possible—it’s something to get excited about.
