One of the most successful and well respected professional organizations at Texas Tech University, the Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP), continues to offer students the rare chance to personally interact with some of the world’s leading technology and energy companies through a series of specialized industry visits, corporate recruiting events and general information sessions.

AITP, whose mission aims to facilitate learning and networking for students interested in information technology, recently took a trip to Austin to get a unique glimpse inside the inner-workings of a number of technology giants including Dell, HP, IBM and National Instruments. These industry trips are specifically designed to broaden the horizons of students, help them narrow their career paths and strengthen the ties between these organizations and the university.
