Career and Internship Fair
On Wednesday, April 3, 2024, The UofM School of Public Health (SPH) hosted its Inaugural Career and Internship Fair under the direction of Jamecia Richardson, Coordinator of Experiential Learning and Career Services for the SPH. Later in the week, master’s students also attended an MPH Practicum Orientation session to gain insights into SPH practicum guidelines, eligibility, and available resources. The Career and Internship Fair welcomed 50 students and 13 community partners who engaged with students and discussed potential opportunities, such as volunteering, internships, and jobs to enhance their professional portfolios. These events showcased the support and opportunities by the SPH to elevate student success while enrolled in our programs.
Students came prepared with resumes in professional attire and knowledge of how to network and participate in professional events like this from workshops such as the Pep Talk with the Dean and Professional Communication and Resume Building hosted by the SPH Office of Experiential Learning.
Based on the feedback survey, 23 respondents (students and community organizations) rated the event 5 out of 5 stars. The event was a huge success! The community organizations and students enjoyed speaking with one another and learning more about how they can collaborate and bridge gaps within our communities. The School of Public Health looks forward to welcoming even more local organizations and students to future events like this one.
