What is the Professional Pillar?
Year-Round Events
Professional Committee
The Professional Committee helps to lead the ongoing professional development of PSWE's members. They help to plan and lead events including resume reviews, plant tours, and informal networking events.
Mentoring Program
PSWE offers two mentoring programs for our members. One program connects underclassmen with upperclassmen to help with the transition into college and into an engineering major. The second connects upperclassmen with recent college graduates to help with the transition from college to grad school or a full-time engineering career.
