Lakehead U graduates Dushan Zuber (left) and William Urbanski (right) helped to organize a Career Fair at the Thunder Bay Campus on October 23, which attracted more than 50 employers. The two graduates, along with nine others, were hired this fall by the University with funding provided by the federal government’s Career Focus Program.

Dushan Zuber (HBComm’09) is a graduate of the Thunder Bay Campus while William Urbanski (BASc’09) is a graduate of the Orillia Campus. Urbanski will be helping to stage a smaller career fair, with about 15 employers, at the Lakehead University Orillia Campus on January 21, 2010.

The Career Focus Program is intended to offer meaningful work, experience, and training related to the graduate's field of study. For more information contact Career and Co-operative Education Services (807) 343-8264.

These individuals unselfishly gave of their time and wisdom to draft a strong vehicle for a positive trajectory forward for the University.
