Activities
We serve as the student advisory board for all students in Industrial Engineering and Management Sciences (IEMS) program at Northwestern University. Our organization fosters a collaborative learning environment through study sessions, workshops, and seminars on resume building, interview preparation, and industry trends. We host networking events and industry mixers, allowing members to connect with professionals, alumni, and recruiters, and arrange company tours for an inside look at various industries. Moreover, we build a strong community through social events like game nights and picnics, and we work closely with the IEMS department to provide guidance and resources.
