Welcome to our Spring 2012 Engineering Expo for Co-op and Internships!

Our Engineering Expo is the premier event for recruiting engineering co-op and internship students here on The University of Tennessee - Knoxville campus. With our students, we focus on the educational aspects of the co-op and internship process and encourage them to seek positions that match their academic and career goals.

We welcome and appreciate your feedback. Thank you for your support of this event – one of the few engineering-only co-op and internship fairs in the country!
