STEM Veterans USA at Rutgers University

STEM Veterans USA at Rutgers University Mission statement: to recruit, assist, and employ today's student veterans into tomorrow's STEM leaders. Drop by our page and give a like/follow!

Nationally, there is a lack of new graduates in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) degrees. From the Whitehouse on down, there is a major push to get more students into STEM. Simultaneously, there is a huge push to get veterans into good jobs upon leaving their service. STEM Veterans USA’s mission is to address both of these issues. Due in part to a veteran friendly hiring pr

ocess, many companies seek out veterans when they are hiring. Research from the Million Records Project by Student Veterans of America showed that every semester there are roughly 150,000 veterans across the United States and four countries that are pursuing a STEM degree. As veterans rejoin the civilian world, they often find themselves in need of guidance when it comes to finding a career path, internship and job opportunities, and overall networking connections. Our mission at STEM Vets USA is focused on creating an effective buffering system which helps maintain a veteran's effectiveness and motivation while bridging the gap between educational assistance, professional development, and employment.

The Licensed Site Remediation Professionals Association (LSRPA) is seeking student volunteers for its annual New Jersey Site Remediation Conference (NJSRC), being held at the Hyatt Regency in New Brunswick on June 14-15, 2022. It is a great opportunity to build your network, seek internship opportunities and meet potential employers for free!

They are looking for student volunteers to help over the two days of the conference. Volunteers assist with registration, organization, and conference logistics, and in doing so, you will have the opportunity to network with conference attendees and on-site vendors. You will also be able to attend and assist with at least one of the eleven seminars being offered. The seminars cover such diverse topics as: Navigating the PFAS Investigation Process, Advancing Brownfield Remediation and Redevelopment, Contaminants of Emerging Concern, Environmental Justice and Advancements in Chemical and Biological Remediation Technologies. (See the conference schedule for more course titles: https://bit.ly/39sTEqd)

They're seeking volunteers who are available for half-day or full day shifts on one or both days of the conference. Each volunteer will receive free admission to the conference, parking fee reimbursement (or train fare reimbursement to/from New Brunswick) and meals during their shift. And, of course, the amazing networking opportunity described above. Graduate students and upper-level undergraduate students are also encouraged to apply.

The NJSRC is the ONLY Conference dedicated to site remediation in New Jersey. In attendance will be environmental professionals representing many different companies. Conference attendees include environmental consultants, attorneys, contractors, laboratories, and vendors of environmental services. It is a good place to introduce yourself to dozens of environmental professionals and companies to expand your knowledge and network.
If interested, please email POC Tiesha Green at [email protected]. Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to get started on your environmental career!
