Engineering Career Trek to Schneider Electric

Engineering Career Trek to Schneider Electric promotional image

This career trek takes a small group of Iowa engineering students to Schneider Electric's Cedar Rapids facility for a tour, company overview, and Q&A with Schneider's recruiting team and Iowa alumni on staff. If you're interested in electrical, mechanical, or industrial engineering roles in manufacturing, product testing, or product development, this is a direct look at what that work looks like day to day.

Schneider has hired Iowa engineering students for internships and co-ops in the past, including electrical engineering co-op roles based in Cedar Rapids, so this is also a chance to build a relationship before those postings open. Get an inside look at the company before you ever submit an application.

Logistics:

Transportation to and from Cedar Rapids will be provided. We will meet in the 2nd floor lobby of the Seamans Center, outside Room 2040, at 1:00 PM. We'll depart in time to arrive at Schneider by 2:00 PM.

Dress Code:

We recommend business casual attire for this trek. Students must wear long pants and closed-toe shoes (no high heels), and should bring a government-issued ID.
