Career treks are immersive experiences that offer students the opportunity to get a first-hand view of industry in action and make valuable connections by networking with industry partners in their work environment. In collaboration with Alumni Relations, The Office of Business Partnerships and Student Support, Business Career Services offers a variety of career treks to the Daniels School of Business student body. Individual students and student organizations are invited to partner in attending and planning these experiences.
In addition to hosting reoccurring career treks with different academic programs, we also offer ‘Open’ career treks of various lengths that students and student organizations can apply to attend. These ‘Open’ career treks provide the opportunity for students to give input on the target industries and employers visited. Please see the available Open Career Treks for Spring 2027 below. Whether you are an individual, or representing an organization, use the application to express your interest in attending and/or collaborating!
