Networking with Local Engineers

Most students know that networking is essential in the competitive and challenging job market. While Duke students can connect and networking with alumni using Ask a Blue Devil and the Duke Alumni Directory, have you checked out local-area networking events in the Triangle area?

EventBrite and Meet Up are informal platforms that can also be used for networking and connecting!

Meet Up – Engineering Events

Some popular Meet Up groups include:

Meet Up – Triangle Tech Talks

Meet Up – Downtown Techies

Even if you don’t plan to stay in the Triangle area of North Carolina, Eventbrite and Meet Up have events and groups nationwide!

You got this.
