More Employers, More Opportunities: Fall Career Fair Connects 766 Students With 89 Partners

Employers are increasingly looking to Bowie State University for their next generation of talent. On November 4, 2026. 766 students and alumni met with recruiters from 89 organizations at the Fall 2026 Career and Internship Fair, hosted by the Engage Center for Experiential Learning and Career Readiness, in the Martin Luther King Jr. Center.

Participating organizations included Enterprise Mobility, Motorola, Under Armour and WSSC. Recruiters shared insights on career pathways, current hiring needs and what it takes to stand out in today's job market.

"Having 89 employers, graduate schools, and community partners, on campus tells us that organizations recognize the talent and preparation Bowie State students bring," said Dr. Jared Moffett, Executive Director for The Engage Center for Experiential Learning and Career Readiness. "Our goal is to make sure every student walks into those conversations ready, whether they are a first-year student exploring options or a senior or graduate student preparing for that first offer."

Moffett said the turnout reflects a growing culture of career readiness on campus. "When 766 students show up, they are telling us they are serious about their futures. Our job is to keep opening doors and to make sure they are prepared to walk through them."

The fair is just one part of the center's year-round support. Students and alumni can get help refining their resumes, strengthening interview skills and connecting with potential employers, and they can schedule one-on-one career appointments for personalized career counseling.

Events like the Fall Career and Internship Fair reflect Bowie State's continued investment in career readiness and workforce development, preparing students and alumni to compete and lead in their chosen fields.
