UNR Society of Women Engineer’s "Evening with Industry"
On Nov 5, the University of Nevada, Reno’s Society of Women Engineers hosted their annual dinner and job fair called Evening With Industry or “EWI.” EWI was started as a dinner by Misty Capriotti to help bridge the gap from student to professionals. In 1999, the section added a job fair to the event to provide an even better service to the students and engineering community. The student section has been so successful that two years ago they merged their job fair with the Academic and Career Services’ job fair.
