If you’re a high school student in the New York area  considering a career in engineering, you should put this event on your calendar  – you’ll have the chance to meet engineering professionals and college  representatives from all over the country. The Lower Hudson Valley Engineering Expo is a project of The Foundation for Engineering Education, Inc.

We encourage all OFC students and their families to join us for this very special event where you’ll have the opportunity to meet others going through the college process, talk to OFC staff in a relaxed atmosphere, and network with young professionals in education, technology, and the arts.

We also invite college students, young job seekers, and others going through an important education or career transition – or anyone who’d like to join us for what promises to be an evening of wonderful conversations. The event is free and open to the public; RSVP is required. Visit this link for more info and to RSVP.
