Out for Undergrad (O4U) Engineering Conference deadlines
Round 3: Sunday, May 7th, 2023
*It is encouraged that students apply as soon as possible, as O4U Engineering has historically selected more students during Rounds 1 and 2.
The Out for Undergrad Engineering Conference will be held in person in St. Paul, MN, during October 20-22, 2023. It should be noted that this conference is geared towards serving students that identify as LGBTQ2+ and plan on pursuing a career in engineering, whether it be industry or academia. Students are admitted to attend the conference on a rolling basis. Flights, hotel, and conference costs are covered entirely by O4U.
Here is a little more about the conference:
Out for Undergrad is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization designed to help high-achieving LGBTQ2+ undergrads reach their full potential.
LGBTQ2+ engineering students will have the opportunity to discuss being out in the engineering industry and hear from professionals who are out in their careers.
Students will network with LGBTQ2+ peers and professionals from top engineering companies from a wide range of industries across the country.
Students will have the opportunity to find LGBTQ2+ mentors in their field.
Sponsoring companies will recruit students for jobs and internships at the career fair and throughout the conference. Some company sponsors in the past have included: General Motors, Medtronic, Clorox, ABB, Stantec, Ecolab, Barr, university graduate programs, and more!
