PESC is not in charge of seminars outside of the Monday, 8:30 to 5:30 time frame. Companies will need to contact calendar@purdue.edu to schedule a seminar for those times. Space will be reserved and a coordinator will be assigned to help plan your information session.

To further specify your seminar time (beyond Morning or Afternoon) please send an email to pescir@ecn.purdue.edu. We will take note of your request and we will do our best to accommodate you. We can’t guarantee this time because of the limited amount of rooms and large number of companies participating in seminars.
