Home News Weston Career Center honored as it expands access to employment in China Olin’s Weston Career Center has begun an initiative to identify international job opportunities for Chinese students in its programs—as well as any other students seeking employment in Asia—by expanding the school’s network of communication among Olin alums abroad. The initiative recently garnered accolades from a consortium of universities. Last month, Olin&＃8217;s Weston Career Center hosted a virtual event based in China called the Specialized Master&＃8217;s Program Summit as one of the first steps in this exciting initiative. The summit was the first event of its kind for the Olin community, connecting students and alumni around the world virtually and featuring panels, speakers and direct meetings between students and companies across various industries. Di Lu, the corporate manager for the Weston Career Center out of Asia, has accepted three American Universities&＃8217; China Association (AUCA) awards on behalf of Olin Business School this year, and is a crucial part of Olin&＃8217;s drive to increase engagement in China. She was excited about the outcome of Olin&＃8217;s first virtual SMP Summit and believes that its newly virtual format &＃8220;helped make [the event] happen,&＃8221; because it allowed facilitators to connect &＃8220;more people across more locations.&＃8221; Thanks to the unifying force of the internet, the SMP Summit featured almost 20 alums located in cities across Asia who were involved in one-on-one networking sessions with students, as well as multiple guest speakers from high-profile companies. The WCC&＃8217;s interest in connecting students with alumni in China comes from a pre-existing, strong network across the United States that continues to provide resources for students to build a career domestically. However, according to Lu, many students&＃8217; career interests are starting to shift to companies and firms in Asia. According to Lu, this initiative is a prime example of how the WCC and Olin are &＃8220;a student-centered school and career center&＃8221; that are willing to make big commitments in order to serve students&＃8217; needs. She also sees it as evidence that Olin is an increasingly &＃8220;globally minded&＃8221; school that seeks to provide students with opportunities around the world, while also keeping them connected to resources and opportunities here in St. Louis. The WCC is also expanding its initiative to provide student resources and alumni networks across China with various programs and events outside of the recent SMP Summit. Lu explained that the center is promoting a joint alumni engagement and corporate partner program to develop relationships between hiring partners, alumni, and current Olin juniors and seniors in cities across China. The center is putting on four virtual career fairs, more than 20 company information sessions, and a series of industry panels throughout the school year in collaboration with the AUCA. Lu hopes that this WCC initiative will &＃8220;help maintain a strong connection between the Olin community and students/alums even after they leave the US.&＃8221; She believes that events linking Olin&＃8217;s current students with alums and community members based in Asia will &＃8220;cultivate the culture of Olin people helping each other,&＃8221; a culture that is so important to every member of the Washington University community. For students and alums interested in connecting with industry and community members across China, visit the WCC to take advantage of these exciting new programs.
