Past Dining with Professional Events
Since the beginning of UCSD SASE in 2011, Dining with Professionals (DWP) has been the flagship event that has brought intensive publicity, growth, and innovation to our organization and most importantly, our members have also learned and achieved an incredible amount through DWP as well. Since then, DWP has been changing and improving rapidly year by year. We have more than doubled our attendance from the first DWP to our most recent DWP held in November 2013. We have increased the quality of our events by seeking out only the best professionals who are willing to help curious college students in their future professional careers by reaching down through a network path to these students. Most importantly, we have also heard and replied to the wishes and desires of our UCSD SASE community on who they would like to network with during the next DWP. Therefore, it is because of these requests that we will host yet another DWP, traditionally held in fall quarter, this coming March with many highly requested science based professionals so that each and every UCSD SASE community member is able to achieve their best through us.
UCSD Student Demographics
Attendance
With "Dining With Professional - Science" being the 4th Dining with Professional event held by Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers - UCSD, the number of interested students attending is estimated to be above one hundred. Due to the continuous growth of our organization, as well as the publicity of our event, previous attendees as well as new students are joining us with each DWP. There is usually more students than each participating group of professionals managed to interact with, and it is advisable for each organization to attend DWP with more than one professional in order to connect with our student pool more throughly.

The third annual Dining With Professionals (DWP) held on November 16th, 2013 by the Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers (SASE) at UCSD was by far the most successful Dining With Professionals UCSD SASE has ever held. With around 100 total attendees and 7 major companies attending, including Cubic Corporation, Spectrum Knowledge, Life Technologies, Illumina, Aerotek, Northrop Grumman, and General Electric, the event was a huge success. A special thanks to Cubic for sponsoring the event as well as a special thanks to Dr. Vu H. Pham, the managing partner at Spectrum Knowledge, for hosting the beginning keynote speech. Look out for more large professional events with even more companies, and even more opportunities for attendees in the future!
