Volunteer: gain experience & help others
STUDENT HOMEWhy volunteer?
When you volunteer, not only are you helping others; it’s a great way to develop interpersonal and organizational skills. It also shows initiative, helps fill in gaps on your resume, and expands your professional network. If the volunteer work is hands-on or related to engineering, it’s even better.
