On behalf of the Texas Society of Professional Engineers (TSPE) and the American Society for Professional Engineers (ASCE) we are organizing a banquet at Piney Woods Country Club to celebrate Engineers` Week.  If you have any students who are leaning toward the engineering profession, we would love for them to come. 

I have attached the invitation if you have a place to post it.   If you, or interested students, have any questions, please contact me.

Thanks!

Exxon Internship Opportunities
 
Volunteer Houston and the ExxonMobil Corporation have teamed up for the 10th year to bring the ExxonMobil Community Summer Jobs Program to the Houston area.  This program grants 65 non-profit and governmental agencies grants to hire summer interns.  Potential interns must be considered sophomores (24 credits), juniors or seniors before the summer starts and must be returning to school in the fall as a full-time undergrad student.  The internships are 8 weeks (some have extended work periods) and pay a stipend of $2000.  Please see the listing attached and share this with your students.  If the students are interested in any of the positions, they need to directly contact the person listed at that particular agency for their application process.  The agency hiring deadline is April 30th... so students need to get busy sending out their resumes now!  Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns regarding our program.  My email is christyf@volunteerhouston.org
