APEGBC is hosting a Student and Industry Night at UBC. This fun and casual evening provides a great opportunity for industry professionals to share their knowledge, career anecdotes and advice with engineering students. It's also a great opportunity to socialize and network with fellow engineers.

The night will begin with presentations from speakers Ben Sparrow, P.Eng and Paul Nielson, P.Eng on the topic of “The direction of the engineering and geoscience sectors in British Columbia”. This will be followed by a networking period, during which refreshments will be served.

Students interested in the presentation topic can find background information within the APEGBC Engineering and Geoscience Labour Market Study.

Students must register in advance for this free event.
