Wentworth On The Road

Let us bring Wentworth students to you! The exact nature of each WOTR varies, but some possibilities include:

  • Panel Discussions
  • Site Tour
  • Presentation including an overview of your organization and what you look for in candidates
  • Q&A

Wentworth On The Road is a great option for organizations in the design field to show off their space and work.  Employers are responsible for student transportation.

In addition to these events, Wentworth offers a number of other outlets to engage students:

  • Post your openings in WITworks, where Wentworth students go to look for co-ops and jobs.
  • Become a Co-op Employer:  All undergraduate day students are required to complete two Cooperative Education (co-op) experiences prior to receiving their Bachelor’s degree.  These are typically paid, full-time (30 hours minimally per week) and last for the duration of the semester.  Most students do their required co-ops in their junior and senior year and an optional co-op in their sophomore year.  Architecture students complete their required co-ops in their sophomore and junior years.
  • Interview On Campus:  We offer on-campus interviewing where you can review resumes of all candidates, pick the students whom you care to interview and host interviews on campus or virtually through the meeting platform of your choosing. We will do all of the administrative tasks.  You can pick a date that would work for you and we will set it all up.
