Events & Professional Development
MEP and our professional societies host a variety of events, activities, and workshops for Mines students throughout the academic year. In addition, student organizations host monthly meetings to build peer networks of support while also hosting industry partners to share internship and employment opportunities. Students can build leadership skills, network with peers, alumni, and industry professionals who share social identities, and build community ties that lead to and through graduation.
