    You can view timings and more details, as well as add individual sessions to your calendar, by logging into the AirMeet EES Platform (see section below).

  • What is the time commitment to attend EES? I don't have time to attend for 3 days.

    There is no required time commitment to attend EES! The Summit will involve many varied sessions, and we encourage you to attend as many that work for your schedule and interests.

    At a minimum, we would love every student to take part in 2 breakout sessions and attend the keynote speeches.

  • Can I attend more than one Emerging Engineers Summit?

    You can attend the Emerging Engineers Summit any year you are eligible! The event takes place annually in the fall.

  • Will there be 1:1 matching with companies this year?

    As part of the 2024 expansion of EES, we have moved the matching process to a separate platform, CareerConnect.

    Unlike the former EES Career Fair, CareerConnect is available to CodePath course completers year-round and allows us to serve more students, with fewer restrictions.

    All course completers receive information about CareerConnect at the end of their CodePath course.

  • How can I get EES Swag?

    Watch out for opportunities to win swag at EES 2024! Participating in sessions, helping and engaging with your peers, or standing out in the chat can all lead to being chosen to win.
