Spring 2026 Engineering Career Fair

Engineering Career Services and Engineering EXPO are sponsoring the Spring Engineering In-Person Career Fair occurring next week, Wednesday, February 11th, at the Illini Union.

The spring fair continues to be one of the most impactful ways our students engage with employers and highlight the skills they develop here at Grainger Engineering. More than 110 employers across 20+ industries are registered to attend - a 10% increase over Spring 2025 - and half are recruiting for both internships and full‑time roles. This momentum reflects the strong reputation of our programs and the outstanding preparation our students receive.

As students balance academic commitments with career exploration, your support and flexibility can make a meaningful difference in helping them participate. Please join us in encouraging students from all departments and class years to attend and demonstrate the depth of their Grainger experience to our corporate partners.

We also invite you to stop by the fair to meet alumni returning to campus as employer representatives. It is a wonderful opportunity to see our students in action as they apply the capabilities and confidence shaped through your classrooms, labs, and mentorship.

Please see the attached slide for event details and feel free to share it with students before class.
