Upward Bound Career Fair



This past April, Hibbing Community College hosted a Career Exploration Fair for Upward Bound high school students. Small groups of high school students had the chance to sit down and discuss different career paths with professionals from a variety of different industries. Present at the fair was our very own Dr. Les Flemming and two IRE students. Together we discussed what engineering is, the paths that we took into engineering, and what makes the IRE program unique.


From an IRE student perspective, it was a wonderful chance to see where we’ve come since our days in high school and to be able to offer these students some helpful guidance and perspective.
