WE 17 Annual Conference ​

We had an AMAZING time at WE17 in Austin, TX!

SWE National Conference is a three day event centered around professional development and attending the career fair. It offers students the opportunity to attend seminars on both soft skills and technical topics that interest them. Students are able to connect with a wide variety of large companies that do not attend the UK career fair.
