More than 50 representatives from Federal, State and Local government agencies, consulting firms, and technology companies will be available to talk to you about where they work, what they do, what geospatial skills are required, and what you can do to get prepared for the workplace. This is also a great chance to network with GIS professionals and discuss research problems or issues you might be working on.
