National Engineers Week is an annual event that recognizes the contributions engineers and engineering students make in the world.

Engineers are vital to our business and are helping us meet energy needs by working on some of the most exciting industry projects in the United States. They are important drivers of innovation, are critical thinkers and are solution-oriented.

Williams supports engineering programs at universities across our operating areas and was pleased to attend or sponsor several campus-based activities this week.

At West Virginia University, Williams was a corporate sponsor for E-week professional development activities, including sponsorship of a new program called Career Closet, which provides business professional clothing to students going on job interviews or to career fairs. Williams employees also presented a session about how to make good first impressions, resume writing and career fair etiquette.

At Oklahoma State University, Williams employees participated in the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology student carnival, judging student organization booths and providing information about Williams to students.
