Corporate Involvement and Workforce Development

Are you looking to find support for the design, modification, or development of a new product, process, testing apparatus, or system? We can help!

Engineering Days (E-Days) is a long-standing tradition of CSU excellence, offering senior undergraduate students an opportunity to showcase the completion of their senior design projects.

By participating as a corporate senior design sponsor, companies can make a financial contribution toward project materials and overall operations of senior design.

Industry Advisory Board

Advising. Fostering. Advocating.

The School of Biomedical and Chemical Engineering Advisory Board was formed to enhance the academic and research efforts of the school and the student experience by

  1. Advising the school on program and curriculum matters to stay current with industry advancements;
  2. Fostering communication and opportunities for interaction between students, faculty, and industry (e.g. internships, projects, research);
  3. Increasing hands-on experiences for students to enable them to make more informed decisions and have increased post-graduate opportunities;
  4. Advocating for the School in research, industry, and the community to foster image and increase opportunities.
