The
fourth annual Fort Hays State University Majors and Graduate Programs
Fair will be from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 12, in the
Memorial Union's Fort Hays Ballroom.
The event provides
students with an opportunity to meet faculty, staff and students from
all academic departments in one location to assist in answering academic
inquiries. Undecided students can be exposed to the variety of major
options available. Students can learn about specific requirements for
majors, curriculum and career options.
Students already in
a major can learn about minors, certificates, research opportunities
and the Graduate School. Faculty and staff from all departments will be
available to discuss what their programs have to offer and how students
could benefit from minor certificates, internships, research options and
career opportunities.
Networking is made
easy for students who want to learn how to stand out in a sea of
graduates. They can meet faculty and staff from their academic
departments and begin building relationships that can turn into job
references. They can also meet students with the same interests.
Students who attend
may register for prize giveaways, including a Sony Blu-Ray player, Nook
Color, a printer, a bean bag chair and various FHSU items.
Students have an
opportunity to enter a Facebook trivia contest for a chance to win an
FHSU prize. Rules and regulations are posted on the Academic Advising
and Career Exploration Facebook page at www.facebook.com/fhsu.aace
. Trivia questions are posted each Thursday; answers are accepted until
the following Wednesday. The drawing for winners will be at the fair.
Winners must attend to collect their prize.
The fair is
sponsored by the Office of the Provost, the Office of Student Affairs
and the Academic Advising and Career Exploration Center.
