September and October are when most employers start recruiting Fall 2022 new grads, Spring 2023 new grads and Summer 2023 interns. Make sure you’re ready.

The Fulton Schools Career Fairs will be online. With online career fairs, you don’t have to wait in hot, noisy crowds and stand in long lines. You have an opportunity to use time more effectively because there is no need to walk back and forth. Students can attend before and after classes. In addition, online students have a level playing field with Tempe and Polytechnic campus students.

Employers can “bring” more hiring managers from the convenience of their desks. Out-of-state employers that might not be able to come to Arizona can attend online career fairs to expand the opportunities for ASU students.

One of the cool things about college is how each semester is a new beginning, a chance to do just a little bit (or maybe a lot) better than the last. If you are a senior, take a minute to think back on your academic career. You probably realize that you are a much better student now versus when you started. The reason for this is you learned the importance of developing good habits in your life.

Academic integrity issues often come up when a student has been in a panic about a deadline or has not studied enough to master the material. The sooner you can establish good habits and consistency in your life, the better off you will be. Here are a few tips to consider:

ASU Research Computing will be sponsoring a two-day expo to prepare students, staff and faculty to use the ASU supercomputer. The intent of this Expo is to inspire and motivate our research community to use Research Computing’s supercomputing systems and to showcase the important applications of these powerful resources.

This event will include in-depth & interactive training for vital topics such as using the web portal, the Linux command line, the software module system, job submission, job benchmarking, job profiling, job monitoring, tools for submitting a large number of jobs, as well as how to leverage hardware such as graphics processing units (GPUs) and high memory nodes.

Neurodiversity commonly includes but is not limited to autism, ADHD, dyspraxia, dyslexia, dyscalculia and/or Tourette’s. For a variety of reasons, neurodivergent adults who want to work professionally are frequently left out of the workforce or forced into lower-skill jobs. Non-inclusive hiring and retention practices, a lack of employer education and training, an absence of on-the-job support ecosystems, and skill differences or needs that often do not align with standard business operations all contribute to the problem.

A neurodivergent condition affects an estimated 15% to 20% of the world’s population. Autism affects around 2% of American adults, which is the initial focus of many neurodiversity employment programs. Organizations have begun recognizing the value of hiring neurodivergent individuals. Their ability to think out of the box and produce creative solutions and ideas adds significant value.

Neurodiversity Career Connector is a featured job marketplace that assists neurodivergent individuals in connecting with employers in the United States who are looking for neurodivergent candidates.

As an online student, there are many ASU resources to support your success. If you are unsure of the course curriculum, you have academic advisors. If you are having issues with coursework, you have professors, classmates and tutors available to you. When you are experiencing other academic challenges, you have success coaches. When you have questions regarding career and professional development, do you know to whom or where to turn?

“I don’t cheat so it doesn’t impact me.” Cheating in university classes actually hurts everyone. Cheating makes grading in the classroom unfair to other students. It holds the potential to diminish the reputation of your degree within your professional community. It erodes the trust that your communities give to higher education institutions. As a university student, it’s very important to consider the many negative impacts that cheating has on your education.

These are not always easy situations to deal with, but here are a few tips to consider:

• When/if you hear other students talking about cheating on an assignment, try to provide them other alternatives, like sharing helpful resources, encouraging them to attend instructor office hours, or even just letting them know it’s OK to get one bad grade and do better the next time.
• If you see academically dishonest behavior occurring, notify your instructor so they can look into the matter and take appropriate steps.
• If another student asks you to share their work with them, say something like, “No, I can’t do that, sharing my work could get us both into academic integrity trouble. Have you tried using the Fulton Schools Tutoring Center?”
• The world needs leaders of high character and strong integrity; make it your personal commitment to model these behaviors both in the classroom and in interactions with your classmates.

Please visit the Academic Integrity Office website and the Fulton Schools Resources page for links to the Fulton Schools Tutoring Center and numerous other student resources.

Just like writing a short story, a how-to guide or even a poem, originality is important when writing code for your class assignments. In most Fulton Schools courses, the code you write must be your own original code that reflects your understanding of the assignment. When struggling with an assignment, it can be tempting to copy or borrow excessively from another person or source to get the assignment finished by the deadline. Do not give in to this temptation! Coding can be difficult but if you apply critical thinking and allow time for design, there is little doubt that you can succeed.

Since the pandemic began, virtual career fairs have nearly replaced all in-person career fairs.

The virtual career fair has solved some challenges employers and candidates face. Employers can connect with candidates around the country with the click of a button. In doing so, the virtual career fair has increased productivity and engagement for candidates and employers.

The advantages virtual career fairs have over in-person career fairs include:
