Events and Workshops

The LSA Opportunity Hub hosts in-person and virtual events and workshops throughout the year to support students.

These events and workshops are an important resource for LSA undergrads—one element in a series of experiences during your time at Michigan. Each is designed to help you gain clarity about your professional path and next steps.

LSA Internship Fair

The annual LSA Internship Fair is designed to help you navigate the internship search process and learn how to maximize the experience. Past interns will share their own experiences and tips, and Hub staff are available to work with you to identify the best next steps for you. It’s also a place to gain advice from alums, from recent grads just breaking into their industry all the way up to those with established, decades-long careers.

The 2025 LSA Internship Fair is scheduled for Thursday, February 6th from 3:00-6:00 p.m. EST and will be held fully in person in the Michigan Union's Pendleton Room. RSVP on LSA Engage.

LSA Grad School Fair

If you’re thinking about applying to grad school (or already have it in your plans), you’ll need insight on what makes you a competitive candidate, how to secure funding, and what to expect throughout the process.

The annual Grad School Fair gathers all those resources in one place, so you can learn more about programs and application requirements and talk with current grad students across different disciplines about their experiences. It’s also a chance for undergrads to develop their plan—outlining what the next steps are on their path to admission to law, medical, business, public policy, and other graduate programs.

Our next Grad Fair will take place in October 2025. If you are a grad school representative who would like to participate, please email lsa.hubevents@umich.edu to be added to our mailing list

Alum Connections

Alum Connections brings alums and students together for conversation that’s authentic and personal.

Students who participate in these in-depth talks (RSVPs fill up fast!) get the chance to ask questions directly and walk away with invaluable information. Past alum participants have included Pinterest’s Head of Community Operations Jud Hoffman, New York Times-published international photographer Kirsten Kortebein, and Hamilton producer Jeffrey Seller.

What sets these sessions apart is their size and format: a small group in an informal setting (dress code is come as you are). No resume exchanges or fussy suits—these sessions invite students to explore and understand, rather than compete.

Workshops

Develop important elements of your professional identity in the Hub’s small-group coaching workshops. These sessions cover a wide range of topics, including how to create and manage a LinkedIn profile that advances your goals, crafting a compelling cover letter, and tips for navigating your internship search.
