Professional Connections

Professional connections, including the Humphrey network of alumni and professionals, are key to a successful career. Build your network through our mentor program, our LinkedIn and Facebook groups, career exploration trips, and events.

Career Exploration Trips

Career and Student Success and Alumni Relations partner to bring students to network with employers and learn about what it is like to work in different environments. Each spring, we travel to Washington, D.C. Other trips include a summer trip to Chicago and a winter day trip in the Twin Cities.

Mentor Program

Our domestic mentor program connects Humphrey students with thousands of alumni who share similar professional interests to help students develop substantive knowledge in their chosen field and refine strategies for finding meaningful work.

Events

Throughout the year, Career and Student Success provides opportunities for students to connect with professionals and alumni in a variety of sectors. Each spring, we plan the PASA Career Fair, bringing employers who want to hire for jobs and internships together with students. Networking events are held throughout the year, and employers come to campus for information sessions and on-campus interviews.
