The Engineers' Extra
The Raleigh Engineers Club (REC) has been in existence since 1926. The club seeks to promote the Engineering field through monthly technical meetings and support of those pursuing a future in the Engineering discipline. We award an annual scholarship to a Raleigh area graduating high school senior to enter the school of engineering at NC State. Our members have a diverse background of engineering disciplines and represent several companies and government agencies located in the Raleigh area.

Join us for the presentation of our new scholarship winner! Each year we award one semester's tuition for a Raleigh area high school senior entering NC State in the School of Engineering. Also join us for the Update and Recruiting Trends for the NCSU Graduates, presented by D.R Ingram, to see where engineering graduates found jobs, who's hiring, what kind of starting salaries they are seeing, and how many went on to graduate school.
Mr. Ingram has a Masters of Science, College Student Personnel Services from Miami University and received his undergraduate degree from NC State. He has been with the placement center over 16 years but has over 20 years of experience facilitating the career development of both undergraduate and graduate level students in institutions of higher education and via non-profit organization. Interaction with students consists of quality face-to-face career counseling, e-career counseling (via email), facilitating workshops, and presentations. Much research and investigating is done prior to student(s) meeting, or post student(s) for effective follow up.
This program will not provide pdh credits.
