Huntsville Career Fair
Austin Peay State University’s College of STEM is hitting the road for Huntsville in November, and we’re bringing students along for the ride! Join us on November 14 in Huntsville for a day of connecting with area businesses and Austin Peay alums.
From 10 a.m. to noon, potential employers will set up to greet students and discuss opportunities for full-time and internship positions with companies in the Huntsville area. Following lunch, students will enjoy an opportunity for site visits to select employers, then end the evening with dinner and a Q&A panel session with Huntsville-area College of STEM alumni.
Applications are due by 11:59 p.m. on Friday, September 27. If you have any questions not answered by the below FAQ, please contact Colby Wilson (wilsonrc@apsu.edu).
