Program:

Please join us at this signature event as we continue our annual tradition of awarding scholarships to local high school students persuing careers in chemical engineering.  This year we are awarding a scholarship to McKenna Locke, a senior at Elizabethtown Area High School.  She will be attending Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) in the fall.

As an added bonus, a panel featuring two Susquehanna Local Section members will discuss their career paths to give the students further insight to their career selection.  Each speaker will give a brief presentation, followed by a short Q&A period.

This is a great opportunity for seasoned and young professionals alike to gain first-hand information and practical advice on diverse career paths within chemical engineering.
