Career Trips and Talks
In addition to the many skill- and knowledge-building workshops offered throughout the academic year, the Career Services office regularly schedules alumni career talks, employer information sessions and a Thursday Night Networking Series that brings to campus panels of local practitioners. These sessions expose students to career fields and employers that align with the IR/PS career tracks and provide concrete networking and recruiting opportunities.
Larger alumni-student networking events include Winter and Spring Connections. These events incorporate career talks and each year generate several interviews and internship offers from alumni across all sectors.
In addition, Career Services partners with students each year to organize Career Outreach Trips to San Francisco and Washington, DC. These trips, driven solely by student interests, involve site visits with target organizations, individual and group meetings, and a large alumni networking dinner and reception.
The annual Summer Celebrations events carry networking into the summer months as alumni gather with current and prospective students in cities throughout the U.S. and overseas.
