THE BATTALION
CAMPUS BRIEFS
Let's talk about engineering, mathematics
and science careers in a
dynamic, diversified company
Campus Interviews Thursday and Friday, February 18 and 19
Young men of ability can get to the top fast at
Boeing. Today, Boeing’s business backlog is
just under two billion dollars, of which some
60 per cent is in commercial jetliner and heli
copter product areas. The remainder is in mili
tary programs and government space flight
contracts. This gives the company one of the
most stable and diversified business bases in
the aerospace industry.
No matter where your career interests lie —
in the commercial jet airliners of the future
or in space-flight technology — you can find
an opening of genuine opportunity at Boeing.
The company’s world leadership in the jet
transport field is an indication of the calibre
of people you’d work with at Boeing.
Boeing is now pioneering evolutionary ad
vances in the research, design, development
and manufacture of civilian and military air
craft of the future, as well as space programs
of such historic importance as America’s first
moon landing. Gas turbine engines, transport
helicopters, marine vehicles and basic re
search are other areas of Boeing activity.
Whether your career interests lie in basic or
applied research, design, test, manufacturing
or administration, there's a spot where your
talents are needed at Boeing. Engineers, math
ematicians and scientists at Boeing work in
small groups, so initiative and ability get max
imum exposure. Boeing encourages participa
tion in the company-paid Graduate Study
Program at leading colleges and universities
near company installations.
We’re looking forward to meeting engineering,
mathematics and science seniors and graduate
students during our visit to your campus. Make
an appointment now at your placement office.
