Students and Faculty Please RSVP HERE


This fall, U-M History will host the third annual Undergraduate Banquet and Career Conference. Building on the success of the previous two years, this event brings current History students and accomplished alumni together to explore careers, network, and build community.

This year's conference will begin Friday morning, October 9, with a roundtables event hosted by the LSA Opportunity Hub. This event will feature each of our alumni guests at a different table, and give attending students the opportunity to have more personal conversations with each in a structured, but more informal setting.

That evening, the banquet dinner will once again be held at the Graduate Hotel in Ann Arbor. The dinner will feature a multi-course meal, brief presentations by the alumni, and a moderated Q&A to share questions from current majors and minors.

Learn more about this year's participating alumni here.
