SEAS Careers Paths: Doctors, Lawyers and Engineers

SEAS Careers Paths

Gone are the days when students attended Engineering School solely to prepare for a career in engineering. The flexibility of the rigorous academic curriculum, and its training in logical thinking, has made it a starting point for careers in finance, medicine and law. To familiarize students with the multitude of career options open to them, the School sponsors several different events. This year’s annual Engineering Career Fair featured 78 employers, ranging from Teach for America and the Peace Corps to Boeing and Microsoft to Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs.

The event drew hundreds of SEAS students and students from more than 30 other engineering schools in the Northeast.
