Dear Colleague:

We are asking for your assistance in identifying students at your
institution who may have an interest in pursuing graduate degrees in
engineering at the University of Wisconsin.  The conference recruits
students with majors in engineering, chemistry, physics, mathematics,
and computer science.  Please share with your students the following
opportunity:

Each year the College of Engineering at the University of Wisconsin
Madison hosts a three-day graduate recruitment event known as The
Opportunities in Engineering Conference, scheduled for November 8-12,
2006.  The conference gives selected students an opportunity to hear
faculty research presentations, tour laboratories, meet with current
graduate students and individually with faculty in the students area of
interest, and tour the city of Madison as well as the UW campus.  All
expenses including travel, housing, and food are paid in full by the
College of Engineering (with the exception of food for Saturday and
Sunday).  We are particularly interested in identifying underrepresented
candidates including women and students of color.  All applicants should
be in their Junior or Senior year.  Application deadline is September
29, 2006.

Students are encouraged to apply on-line at:
http://www.engr.wisc.edu/services/dao/opps/.  For more information on
opportunities available at the University of Wisconsin, please refer
students to the College of Engineering website at:
http://www.engr.wisc.edu/.

If you have any questions about the application process or services
available at the College of Engineering, please do not hesitate to
contact me.  I can be reached at (608) 263-4583 or
kburton at engr.wisc.edu.
