Engineering and Engineering Technology

The UW-Oshkosh Engineering Club (UWO EC) is an additional initiative in the Engineering Technology program, that has been started on March 2015. Through the UWO EC, our students have a chance to visit local industrial plants. In many cases, it will be the first contact for students with the real engineering world. It is also a great opportunity to meet with future prospective employers.

Our Goals

• To connect UWO students with real industrial sector employers
• To link the UWO Engineering Technology Program with the local industry
• To provide UWO students an opportunity for enhancing their professional portfolio by active participation in engineering-oriented initiatives

Benefits for Students

• Contact with potential future employers (internships, long-term positions and post- graduation opportunities)
• Applying theoretical college knowledge to real industrial settings
• Resume development (opportunities to enhance related experiences)

Participation

• UWO Engineering Club meetings are bi-monthly organized during regular semester time (fall and spring)
• 2 manufacturing plant visits per semester (anticipated)
• Production processes will be discussed during each plant visit
• Chosen technical parameters will be measured/logged to generate professional technical report after each visit (as possible)
