Industrial Advisory Committee

The Industrial Advisory Committee comprises practicing professionals from industry and government who meet with faculty twice per year to review the program and discuss possible improvements.

One of the most valuable roles of the committee members is to inform the faculty of current professional practices and to alert the faculty to emerging trends in the workplace; by doing so, they ensure that course content, laboratory equipment and software can be updated in a timely manner to provide students with the best possible preparation for their careers.
