What is Networking Night?
Networking Night is designed for College of Business (COB) students to learn how to network from professionals and have the opportunity to put their education into action with you! Unlike a job fair, students, businesses, faculty and staff will all be moving throughout a room like a business after hours event.
While networking at the Oshkosh Convention Center, students will learn about your organization as well as internship and full-time opportunities you have available. This is your only chance to interact with ALL admitted COB students in one arena. We are expecting over 700 students at this year's event.
What are the benefits?
-
Meet unique COB students with a wide variety of talents
-
Great tool for promoting your organization
-
Exposure to students, staff, and faculty
-
Develop a long lasting relationship with the College of Business
-
Enjoyable and fun event!

Event Structure for 2012
In order to maximize the amount of student-employer interaction, the students will be broken into two groups, First Time Students and Returning Students. The first group will network with employers from 5:30-6:30 p.m. and the second group from 7-8 p.m. With a smaller group of students, it will increase the opportunity to make more connections.
