'm in the National Society of Black Engineers (don’t have to be black to join, lol). I think she met him at one of our regional conferences. However, I know she is in Society of Women Engineers as well, so it could’ve been from there. Join your professional society or any professional society and attend the conferences. I went to my first conference earlier this year and if I didn’t already have plans for this summer I could’ve landed a couple internships. My friend landed an internship for Summer 2009 from a conference in Fall 2007.



How does this work? I know a friend who joined the Society of Hispanic Engineers even though he wasn’t Hispanic. Is the goal to go to the conferences? However, wouldnt the internship opportunities only be open to the african americans? How do you manage to secure internships? Just talk to random people at the conference?

Thanks
