Communication Studies partnered with IU Southeast’s Career Development Center to host the COMM EXPO 2024. The event was held on Wednesday, March 27, with over 70 students participating. Students interested in careers in communication, advertising, public relations, journalism, media or a related field were welcome and encouraged to attend.
The event kicked off with a panel discussion featuring three professionals from the industry, representing media, advertising/PR, and organizational communication sectors. Once the discussion was complete, students attended an information fair/meet-and-greet networking session, featuring advertising/PR/journalism/media/corporate/nonprofit communication professionals from local companies, agencies and organizations.
Both the panelists and information fair guests, many of whom are IU Southeast graduates, answered questions about their jobs, internships, skill sets and experiences in the field, as well as what new grads can expect in the current marketplace.
