Nuclear Science Week

July 23, 2018

The following post is published on behalf of the Canadian Nuclear Society (CNS).

‘NUCLEAR SCIENCE WEEK’ initiative by the Durham Region, UOIT, Toronto, Sheridan Park and Golden Horseshoe Branches of the CNS
In partnership with Durham College, UOIT and OCNI

We are planning the second edition of our Student Job Fair for the Nuclear Industry as part of Nuclear Science Week, to take place on: Tuesday, October 16, 2018 at the UOIT/Durham College North Oshawa Campus.

We are encouraging all CNA member companies that are actively or potentially hiring to make up the core of the
participants in this important outreach event. We could have as many as 50 employers and exhibitors to help us fill the gymnasium on campus!

    1.  Meet over 600 students “Under One Roof” from colleges and universities in the Greater Toronto and Golden Horseshoe areas, and beyond – not just students in nuclear-related fields, but in other skills and professions that can benefit the industry. Other organizations will be there (Labour Unions, COG, UNENE, etc).
    2. A great venue offered by Durham College and UOIT, with catered food for students and exhibitors.
    3. Exhibitor booths of great value.
    4. Event to be held in the late week-day afternoon to facilitate student participation, and simplify event logistics.
    5. Educational sessions in parallel with the job fair to keep the students engaged for the duration of the event. These will be held on the gym floor.
    6. Exhibitors will have the opportunity to visit UOIT and Durham College facilities prior to the Job Fair

We thank the companies and organizations who participated in 2017, and hope that you will return this year. We welcome new participants, and encourage you to register early (you can save on the booth price, and you can help us advertise a full venue when the bulk on the students register in September).
