Public Impact Fair: Student Resources
The Public Impact Fair: Careers and Resources will be held in-person on September 9, 2024 from 1-6 pm in Honors Hall of the John Martinson Honors College and runs adjacent to the Industrial Roundtable. The fair is open to all students and majors at Purdue University who desire to make a positive public impact in advocacy, administrative, or service positions. This fair brings together government, non-profit, and industry employers to offer internships and careers in a variety of local, state, and federal government fields. It also provides information on resources to make the aspiration of working in places such as Washington D.C. a reality.
The fair will be walk-ins only, no need to register.
