  58. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The University of Toledo College of Engineering will host more than 175 companies from across the country for its Fall 2025 Engineering Career Expo on Thursday, Sept. 18.</p>
  59. <p>The expo is the first of two that the college hosts annually to support students seeking co-ops and post-graduation employment. Approximately 700 graduate and undergraduate students and alumni are expected to attend and network with company representatives and recruiters from 9 a.m. to noon in Savage Arena.</p>
  60. <div id="attachment_94523" style="width: 510px" class="wp-caption alignright"><img decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-94523" class="wp-image-94523" src="https://news.utoledo.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Saif-Alhussini-Anthony-Goucher-Bill-Bucker02252025-3484.jpg" alt="Saif Alhussini, from left, a civil engineering senior, networks with Anthony Goucher and Bill Bucker of the Spicer Group at the Spring 2025 Engineering Career Expo." width="500" height="281" srcset="http://news.utoledo.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Saif-Alhussini-Anthony-Goucher-Bill-Bucker02252025-3484.jpg 748w, http://news.utoledo.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Saif-Alhussini-Anthony-Goucher-Bill-Bucker02252025-3484-300x169.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /><p id="caption-attachment-94523" class="wp-caption-text">Saif Alhussini, from left, a civil engineering senior, networks with Anthony Goucher and Bill Bucker of the Spicer Group at the Spring 2025 Engineering Career Expo.</p></div>
  61. <p>“We are very fortunate to continuously have a high demand from our employers who offer myriad engineering opportunities,” said Geoffrey Humphrys, assistant director of the Shah Center for Engineering Career Development. “The UToledo College of Engineering is one of just eight engineering colleges in the country with an integrated co-op program, and this is a key reason that students choose to study here and that companies choose to recruit from UToledo. The Engineering Career Expo is the perfect platform for our talented students and graduates to connect with these highly committed employers.”</p>
  62. <p>The college’s integrated cooperative education program ensures that engineering science students graduate with a full year of relevant work experience on their resume.</p>
  63. <p>Numerous corporate partners that routinely welcome students through the co-op program are set to participate in the Engineering Career Expo, including Cenovus Energy, First Solar, Libbey, Matrix Technologies, Nexus Engineering Group, North Star BlueScope Steel, NSG/Pilkington North America, PCC Airfoils, PTI, Rudolph Libbe, SSOE and Toledo Refining Company plus Dana Inc., Marathon Petroleum and Vistra on the Fortune 500.</p>
  64. <p>Additional companies set to participate include Applied Environmental Solutions, First Energy, General Motors, Honda, Lubrizol, Monroe Environmental and USG.</p>
  65. <p>“UToledo&#8217;s Engineering Career Fair is one of our most valued opportunities to connect with future engineering talent,” said Ali Wilson, a recruiter for Nexus Engineering Group. “We’ve had the privilege of working with many UToledo students through the University’s incredible co-op program, and we’re consistently impressed by their professionalism, technical skills and eagerness to learn. Several of our co-ops have gone on to build full-time careers with Nexus, contributing meaningfully to client projects and strengthening our teams in Maumee; Cleveland; Midland, Michigan; and Oak Brook, Illinois.</p>
  66. <p>“The caliber of students we meet at UToledo directly aligns with the type of collaborative, innovative professionals we look for as we continue to grow. We look forward to every UToledo event and the chance to welcome more Rockets to the Nexus team.”</p>
  67. <p>Jasper Perry, a <a href="https://www.utoledo.edu/programs/undergrad/mechanical-engineering/">mechanical engineering</a> senior, said The Engineering Career Expo has been one of the most impactful experiences of his time at The University of Toledo.</p>
  68. <p>“Meeting employers face to face led to multiple interviews, one of which resulted in a co-op with a company that aligned perfectly with my passion for glass,” Perry said. “That opportunity not only helped me grow professionally — it ultimately led to a full-time job offer. I’m incredibly grateful I attended the Career Expo that day; it truly opened the door to my future.”</p><p>The post <a href="http://news.utoledo.edu/index.php/09_16_2025/college-of-engineering-to-host-career-expo-on-thursday">College of Engineering to Host Career Expo on Thursday</a> first appeared on <a href="http://news.utoledo.edu">UToledo News</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  129. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The University of Toledo College of Law hosted a naturalization ceremony on Friday, Sept. 12, celebrating 38 new citizens of the United States.</p>
  130. <p>Among the new citizens were UToledo’s Dr. Patrick and Nancy Lawrence. He’s a professor and chair of the Department of Geography and Planning, and she’s an admission analyst in the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.</p>
  131. <p>They and their young family left Waterloo, Ontario, for Toledo in 2000.</p>
  132. <p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-94507" src="https://news.utoledo.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Patrick-Lawrence-Nancy-Lawrence-09122025-5029a.jpg" alt="Dr. Patrick Lawrence, professor and chair of the Department of Geography and Planning, and his wife Nancy, an admission analyst in the Office of Undergraduate Admissions, were among the 38 people naturalized during a ceremony at the Law Center on Friday, Sept. 12." width="500" height="281" srcset="http://news.utoledo.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Patrick-Lawrence-Nancy-Lawrence-09122025-5029a.jpg 748w, http://news.utoledo.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Patrick-Lawrence-Nancy-Lawrence-09122025-5029a-300x169.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></p>
  133. <p>“The United States is our home,” said Patrick Lawrence, who catalyzed the move when he accepted a job as an assistant professor at UToledo. “We&#8217;ve been putting down roots here for 25 years. Our children grew up here, and we plan to retire here. It just makes sense for us to now take this step and become citizens.”</p>
  134. <p>Their son, Matthew, who graduated from UToledo in 2018, was naturalized in a ceremony earlier this summer in Michigan. Meanwhile their daughter, Anna, who graduated in 2024, joined the family after their move and enjoys birthright citizenship.</p>
  135. <p>The family planned to celebrate over lunch with friends following the ceremony.</p>
  136. <p>Judge Jack Zouhary of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio presided over a ceremony featuring guest speakers and music provided by the UToledo Chamber Singers. Zouhary shook hands with each new citizen, including Carmelina Bernier.</p>

  188. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The University of Toledo’s John B. and Lillian E. Neff College of Business and Innovation will host the Accountancy Board of Ohio for College Day on Thursday, Sept. 18.</p>
  189. <p>College Day is an annual event hosted by one of the state’s higher education institutions. It begins with a board meeting and continues into panels, presentations and networking opportunities designed for students to ask questions and learn more about career opportunities as a certified public accountant.</p>
  190. <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-94504" src="https://news.utoledo.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Accountancy-Board-College-Day-Graphic-1.png" alt="Promotional graphic for the Accountancy Board of Ohio for College Day on Thursday, Sept. 18." width="500" height="281" srcset="http://news.utoledo.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Accountancy-Board-College-Day-Graphic-1.png 748w, http://news.utoledo.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Accountancy-Board-College-Day-Graphic-1-300x169.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" />“We’re excited to host the Accountancy Board of Ohio and open this opportunity to our own students as well as high school and college students across northwest Ohio,” said Dr. Terribeth Gordon-Moore, senior associate dean for undergraduate programs and administration in the Neff College of Business and interim chair of the Department of Accounting. “Students will be able to discuss job expectations, licensure requirements and industry trends with working CPAs, including two board members who graduated from our Neff College of Business.”</p>
  191. <p>The board meeting begins at 9 a.m. in the Savage and Associates Business Complex Room 4140, followed by a series of free, public presentations and networking opportunities in the Savage and Associates Business Complex Room 1200:</p>
  192. <p>•  From 11 a.m. to noon, there will be a presentation on negotiating compensation for internships and early career employment.</p>
  193. <p>•  From 1:15 to 2 p.m., a UToledo alumni panel will share their journeys and lessons learned.</p>
  194. <p>•  From 2 to 2:45 p.m., there will be a presentation on new licensure requirements for certified public accountants that take effect in Ohio in January.</p>
  195. <p>•  From 3:15 to 3:45 p.m., there will be a presentation on the use of artificial intelligence in public accounting.</p>
  196. <p>Attendees can also partake in lunch at noon and refreshments and networking opportunities at 2:45 p.m.</p>
  197. <p>Accountants and auditors are in demand in the United States, with the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projecting employment to increase faster than average through 2033.</p>
  198. <p>The Neff College of Business is well positioned to prepare students for careers as <a href="https://news.utoledo.edu/index.php/07_10_2025/neff-college-of-business-extends-prestigious-accreditation">one of only 6% of business schools worldwide</a> to meet the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business’s high standards for accreditation and one of fewer than 200 business schools worldwide to maintain a supplemental accreditation for its accounting program.</p>
  199. <p>Undergraduate accounting students enjoy a 95% job placement rate and an average starting salary of $65,000.</p>
  200. <p>As the profession anticipates new educational and experiential requirements for licensure in Ohio beginning on Jan. 1, the college has proactively adapted its undergraduate and graduate accounting programs to prepare students to sit for certified professional accountant (CPA), certified management accountant (CMA) and enrollment agent (EA) examinations. Its robust exam review courses, as well as additional free resources through the Alan Barry Accounting Lab, are designed for students to pass all or part of the exams before graduation.</p>
  201. <p>“We want our students to hit the ground running,” said Dr. Karen Green, an associate professor of accounting at UToledo. “Our program and exam review resources are designed to prepare them for long-term success in the workforce.”</p>
