Hire Local, Build Local: LSC-CyFair Hosts 'Meet Your Future Workforce' Career & Internship Fair in Cypress This September
Cypress-area employers looking to invest in tomorrow’s workforce today are invited to register now for Lone Star College-CyFair’s Meet Your Future Workforce Career and Internship Fair, taking place Monday, Sept. 23 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on campus.
Hosted by the Falcon Internship Program (FIP), the event offers businesses a rare opportunity to engage directly with highly motivated LSC-CyFair students and alumni pursuing careers in Cybersecurity, Business, Health Sciences, Education, Visual Communications, and other in-demand industries.
“We’re bridging the gap between education and industry by linking companies with highly motivated, skilled candidates who are eager to innovate, learn and make an immediate impact,” said Patty James, Manager of Career and Internship Success at LSC-CyFair. “This fair is your gateway to recruiting top interns or employees. Plus, it’s just one of many campus events designed to fuel your workforce needs.”
Why Local Employers Should Register Now
Employers participating in the Meet Your Future Workforce event will gain more than access to resumes—they’ll gain face-to-face time with students who are ready to contribute from day one. The fair also strengthens companies’ visibility among the future labor force while positioning them as community-minded, education-forward brands.

LSC-CyFair is located next to the Berry Center on Barker Cypress and West Road, serving a fast-growing student population that reflects the region’s rich diversity and professional ambition. Many students are already trained or credentialed through hands-on technical programs, workforce certifications, and internships, making them especially valuable in today’s tight labor market.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce recently reported that work-based learning partnerships between colleges and local employers are among the most effective strategies for closing talent gaps, particularly in fast-growing sectors like healthcare, tech, and skilled trades. The Falcon Internship Program directly supports these goals by facilitating paid and unpaid internships, mentorships, and job placements for students at every stage of their college journey.
