Panel: Graduating Students and New Engineers - Wants and Needs - Are Companies Even Listening? Co-Chairs: Robert Berry, Foxfire Scientific Inc. (United Kingdom); Leonel Lagos, Florida International University (USA) Lead Organizer: Robert Berry Add’l Organizer(s): Leonel Lagos, Collin Donohoue Panel Reporter: Leonel Lagos This panel will focus on new hires and graduating engineers having open lines of communication with employers. Considering the projected shortfalls in the workforce, effective communication of wants and needs of both the employer and employee must exist. Currently, it seems that both sides must work harder to achieve this level of communication. With this new approach, both sides can express their wants and needs for a more satisfied workforce and a better work environment. Panelists include: Carl Dawson, NDA (United Kingdom); Kenny Krieger, Texas State Technical College; Desi Crouther, US DOE and Nadia Lima, Florida International University (USA).
