These students are studying a variety of Engineering programs, including mechanical, civil & infrastructure, electrical, and electronic & computer systems. The IGX team facilitated an engaging showcase of our extensive range of resources and services available. The highlight was a panel discussion featuring five Mentors from the RMIT Career Mentoring program. The students had the invaluable opportunity to hear from these Mentors, who shared their career journeys, the importance of networking, insights into their daily professional lives, and tips on finding your passion. Following the presentation, students had the chance to engage in Q&A session and networked with both the team and mentors.
