Evening With Industry
Every year, UCSB SWE invites representatives from large engineering firms to join us for an evening of networking and fine dining. It's the perfect way to meet and talk to representatives from the companies that you want to work for, and land your dream internship/job.
This is UCSB SWE's biggest fundraiser of the year, so keep an eye out for when we start ticket sales so you can support your fellow engineers! Typically, Evening With Industry is held in mid-January each year. If you're interested in attending, check our Facebook page, or stop by the Engineering II Courtyard or Harold Frank Hall, to buy a ticket near the end of Fall Quarter or the beginning of Winter Quarter.
