More than 30 companies will be present to recruit for full-time positions and internships. The event is open to all major and academic disciplines, as well as to WIU alumni and the public. Professional attire and advance registration is requested.

"Although it has looked different over the years, this year marks our 20th SCM Day event at WIU," Management and Marketing Assistant Professor Honey Zimmerman said. "We are once again excited to host industry partners and recruiting companies on the Macomb campus to interact with our students and share the exciting opportunities available in the field of logistics and supply chain management. This is the one event of the year I tell all SCM majors and minors they should be at on campus because it is a day focused on them and the WIU Supply Chain Program."

This year's schedule includes:

Wednesday, Sept. 13, 9 a.m.-noon - Advisory Board meeting with faculty and industry representatives–The purpose of the SCM advisory board is to facilitate the two-way relationship between industry partners and recruiters, and faculty.
