Shape the Future of Engineering Talent in Nova Scotia

Nov 27, 2024 - Mar 31, 2025

Are you ready to make a lasting impact on the future of engineering in Nova Scotia? Dalhousie University’s Electrical Engineering Society (DEES) invites you to collaborate with us on an exciting initiative: Industry Immersion Day. This program aims to bridge the gap between academia and industry by giving students a firsthand look at the world of professional engineering.


They are seeking companies to host small groups of engineering students for a single day. Here’s why your participation matters:

i. Shape the Future Workforce
By showcasing your company’s work and engaging with students, you’ll help bridge the gap between classroom learning and the skills students need to thrive in today’s engineering landscape.

ii. Foster New Talent
This is an opportunity to connect with driven students who could become your future interns, co-op hires, or team members.

iii. Elevate Our Profession
Mentoring students supports the growth of a capable, innovative workforce that will contribute to the success of your company and the profession.


We understand your time is valuable. That’s why this initiative is designed to remain at a surface level—tours, demonstrations, and high-level interactions without delving into proprietary or sensitive information.


If this resonates with you, please reach out to explore how you or your company could participate. Help create a pipeline of the next generation of engineers equipped to uphold and advance the standards of the profession.
