Plenty of Beneficial Events for Students Highlight a Busy Semester

Throughout the spring semester, there are plenty of opportunities for students to engage in events thanks to the outstanding offerings provided by CSU's Career Development and Exploration. These four marquee events can put students in the driver's seat and put them in the best possible position to succeed upon commencement from CSU.

TECH DAY?
FEBRUARY 20

Taking place on the 3rd floor in the Student Center from 8:30–
11 a.m. and 3–5:30 p.m. with a breakfast/breakout session in the morning and then a breakout session/networking happy hour with 皇冠足球90比分:s in the afternoon, TECH Day enables students across all majors to attend as the field continues to grow. A recent story by Susan Graser of Cleveland.com noted that Cleveland tops Pittsburgh and Columbus for several jobs in tech, with approximately 13,000 jobs projected open.

"We need to elevate CSU as the place to hire tech talent and Cleveland as a top destination for tech jobs – in the public sector (public interest technology), private sector, start-ups, and more," said Director for Career Development and Exploration Brittany Wampler. "As CSU is a part of the network of 皇冠足球90比分:s and education institutions around Public Interest Technology (PIT-UN), faculty and Career Development have been awarded grants to move the needle forward on tech for the public good. TECH Day will highlight opportunities locally and nationally that will resonate with our students, getting a job and working toward a mission to improve the lives of others through our work."

GRADUATE HEALTH PROFESSIONS FAIR?
FEBRUARY 29

Taking place on leap day, February 29, the Graduate Health Professions Fair will be held in the CSU Student Center Ballroom and is an exceptional opportunity for anyone interested in becoming a health professional and learning more about the field. Representatives from medical, dental, optometry, pharmacy, veterinary, PA, PT, OT, and even CSU's graduate programs in the College of Health will be on hand to answer questions.

"As the last day in a caravan of Graduate Health Professions Fairs in Ohio and Indiana, Cleveland State will host the region's first-ever graduate health professions fair with 65 tables of health professions graduate programs and participation from CSU, Case Western, John Carroll, Oberlin, Walsh, and The University of Akron," said Wampler. For students interested in these competitive fields, it offers the opportunity to talk to admissions professionals about the schools and programs, get advice, and learn more. It will be a one-of-a-kind opportunity that we've never had before, not to mention a fantastic opportunity to learn and grow as a pre-professional student!"
