Bailey College of Engineering and Technology at Indiana State University
Join ISU’s Bailey College of Engineering and Technology for the annual FIT for the Future event. This fun-filled day of career exploration offers hands-on activities facilitated by ISU technology students along with shared experiences from professional women working in a variety of career fields. Learn how these women chose their careers, the paths they have followed in building their careers, and how you can take advantage of opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) careers.
If you are interested in a future career in engineering/technology, or if you would like to learn more about what these fields have to offer you, we encourage you to join us for this conference - we would love to meet you! Students are welcome to come as a school group or other organization, OR come on your own.

Thank you for the opportunity to meet new people and expand my horizons in STEM careers." -- Twin Lakes student
"Getting to talk one on one with a woman from the networking panel." -- Clay City student
