How do you get \u00a0that first engineering job? \u00a0A tough task for any engineering student. \u00a0Northeastern University’s<\/a> (NU) American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME<\/a>) student section helps its new members get the skills they need to start their careers.<\/p>\n

NU’s ASME Student Section holds 6 week-night classes in SolidWorks, \u00a0\u00a0This semester,\u00a0David Tortoriello<\/strong>. Jeff Speroni,\u00a0<\/strong>Justin<\/strong> Baldacci<\/strong> and Greg Estra,\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0CSWA certified, volunteer to teach the class.<\/p>\n

\"Northeastern<\/a><\/p>\n

Northeastern is a campus partner with SolidWorks which allows them to be a Certified SolidWorks Associate (CSWA) Provider. \u00a0According to Greg, “Northeastern has been kind enough to get enough certification vouchers for each student in the course. Each student at the end of the course will get a chance to be CSWA certified which is really awesome. We have had many students come back (from previous years) and tell us how helpful this course is for them and how it helped get co-op positions.”<\/p>\n

Northeastern University is known for their co-operative (co-op) education experience integrated with Engineering studies. \u00a0 In the five year program, students must work three – \u00a06 month co-ops at \u00a0engineering companies. To help students find the best jobs, requires them to know SolidWorks and be CSWA certified.<\/p>\n

The class also provides a fund-raising activity for NU’s ASME Student Section. \u00a0To help raise money, students pay $30 per person for a 6 week – 2 hour session class. \u00a0Thank you Greg for sharing with the SolidWorks community.<\/p>\n

When I was a mechanical engineering student, being Rutgers University<\/a> ASME student section president, \u00a0gave me many opportunities. \u00a0So now it is time for me to give back. \u00a0 ASME student sections can apply to become CSWA providers through your schools’s ASME adviser at CSWA Provider program<\/a>. \u00a0 Marie<\/p>\n
