RESPECT 'Meet the Companies' day 2011
On Wednesday 23rd November the School of Civil Engineering welcomed a dozen of civil engineering's key companies, all of whom are looking for young talent to nurture, ready for graduate employment. The School runs an annual series of events, aimed at helping these companies secure first and second year undergraduates for sponsorship through their degrees. The Respect scheme starts with Meet the Companies – which does what it says on the tin – and students from all levels of study come along to talk to the recruiting companies. Thereafter, students will apply and be selected for interview in February, ready to secure their summer placements with their new host organisations.
