UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Mentorship and industry connections can be critical factors for engineering students when trying to obtain internships or start their careers. The Penn State Department of Architectural Engineering created the Architectural Engineering Alumni Mentoring Program to provide students with these impactful professional development opportunities.
Sponsored by the Industrial and Professional Advisory Council, the Alumni Society of Architectural Engineers, and the Student Society of Architectural Engineers, the program pairs architectural engineering students with Penn State alumni to provide guidance and networking opportunities. The program is strongly encouraged for second-year students, but it is open to all architectural engineering students.
