2015 Careers Trip for Humanities Majors
Come see the vast array of opportunities that your humanities major(s) can give you. We will be visiting New York City over Reading Days. The bus leaves for NYC on Wednesday, October 14 at 2:00 p.m. and arrives back in Lexington on Saturday, October 17 at 4:00 p.m.
You’ll have the opportunity to network with alumni, get leads on internships and jobs, and enjoy two full days of site visits all around New York and visit firms in various industries (publications, museums, public service jobs, advertising, PR, non-profit, start-ups, etc).
This trip is open to all undergraduate humanities majors. The cost will be no more than $750, which includes transportation, lodging and one networking dinner. Students are responsible for covering all other meals on their own.
Space is VERY limited – apply as soon as possible.
