Career Information

 
 
The College of Engineering at Wichita State affords excellent career preparation for future engineers. In fact, Wichita State is an excellent career location for students because it is in the City of Wichita - Kansas' largest business and industrial center - and is situated within 50 miles of 40 percent of Kansas' industry. Wichita, one of the world's largest producers of aircraft through Boeing, Raytheon, Cessna, and Learjet, is known as the "Air Capital of the World." This impressive career base does more than demand a high level of engineering expertise - it also provides the hands-on experience essential for developing crucial engineering skills. The University's Office of Career Services provides career counseling, vocational assessment, job postings, resume critiques, practice interviews, resume referral, career fairs, on-campus interviews, and job search information and coaching. All services are free to WSU students.
