Peer Advising Night
Free, honest, upperclassman-to-underclassman advice — held every semester right before registration opens. No appointment, no judgment, just answers.
What we cover
Registration & course selection
Which professors, which sequences, and how to build a schedule that won't break you. Real talk from students who just took the classes.
Technical cores
Deep dives into every ECE technical core from people inside them — what the coursework is actually like and where it leads.
Internships & research
How members landed their internships and research positions: timelines, resumes, interview prep, and which doors to knock on.
Grad school & beyond
Integrated masters, PhD applications, and what industry vs. academia really looks like after the Forty Acres.
How it works
Show up
Open to every ECE underclassman — freshmen and sophomores especially. No sign-up required; just come to the EER on the night of.
Find your table
Tables are organized by topic — tech cores, internships, registration — each staffed by HKN members who've been through it.
Ask anything
It's informal by design. Stay five minutes or two hours. There's usually free food.
Next session: October 8, 2026 — check the calendar for room details.
