Career Development at USC Annenberg means connections.

We support students’ exploration of various career paths and opportunities, provide students with extensive opportunities to intern  within their preferred communities of practice, and connect students to potential employers through company information sessions, on-campus interviews, career fairs, lunchtime speakers, and job shadowing programs.

The Career Development team facilitates experiential education opportunities for students, such as Maymester programs and Career Treks, to help you get a head start on crafting your dream career.
