Join the American Society for Engineering Education June 10-13, 2012 in San Antonio, TX for the 119th Annual Conference & Exposition!
For a conference overview, please visit here. Based on feedback from members, there are several changes with respect to this year's schedule, highlighted below. These changes are to ensure the highest levels of session quality and to provide additional venues and opportunities for us to socialize and network with other members and ASEE leadership.
Changes To Be Made:
Change the Annual Picnic to an all-inclusive Division Mixer Sunday afternoon, complimentary for all attendees.
- The Division Mixer will be a reception that features each division where attendees will mix and mingle with members of their own divisions and with members of other divisions.
- The mixer will feature tables staffed by those divisions that choose to do so.
- Divisions will have the flexibility to do creative activities, prize drawings, etc.
- This event gives the divisions an opportunity to showcase and promote themselves to attendees.
- Light appetizers and complimentary soda and juices would be provided (an open bar is provided at the Welcome Reception which immediately follows).
Add a Welcome Reception Sunday evening in the Exhibit Hall.
This event would have complimentary beer and wine in addition to soft drinks. This adds another complimentary food and beverage function for our all attendees and exhibitors.
Change the concurrent Distinguished Lecture slot on Tuesday into a Second Plenary.
The Second Plenary will feature: a thirty-minute Keynote Presentation from a Leading Industry Executive sponsored by the Corporate Member Council, an address by the President-elect, and addresses by the Best PIC Paper award winner from the previous year, the Best Zone Paper award winner from the previous year, and the National Outstanding Teaching medalist.
Add an Ice Cream Social to the Exhibit Hall at to be held from 3:45 to 4:15 on Monday
This provides another complimentary event to for all attendees and exhibitors.
Change the Exhibitor Happy hour on Tuesday evening to an Exhibit Hall Lunch Tuesday at Noon and then close the hall at 2:00 pm.
This provides attendees and exhibitors another opportunity to network as well as reducing exhibitor travel and expenses.
This revised schedule still retains 13 technical session and business session slots from Monday to Wednesday as in previous years and does not interfere with the Sunday workshop schedule. It retains five concurrent Distinguished Lecturer slots and continues to allow for the Monday and Tuesday evening Division social events.
Mark your calendars - you won’t want to miss this opportunity to network, learn, and share ideas!!
