The goal of the U-M IOE Industry Partnership Program is to create channels to help our industry partners identify promising students and to help expose our students to the breadth of opportunities companies like yours can offer. Through this free program, your company will be able to support our students by sharing opportunities for recruiting through internships, full-time positions and more.
