How do students find internships?
Students participate in a paid or unpaid internship for credit at the organization of their choice, with approval from their advisor. The department maintains a list of internship opportunities or students can find their own. Students in the department have access to an extensive network of alumni working in public relations as well as an active Public Relations Advisory Council, a group of about 25 professionals who meet with faculty and students twice a year. Several major organizations, such as Exxon/Mobil and Allstate, visit the department regularly to recruit interns.
