Alumni Opportunities for Involvement

Career Connections coordinates and sponsors a variety of opportunites for alumni to meet with current students to provide career perspectives. These include offering internships to students, hosting site visits, discussing career fields, or participating in informational interviewing.

Do you need assistance in your own job search? Please see our Services for Alumni.

Internships

Does your organization offer internships? We are looking to connect outstanding Lewis & Clark students with opportunities to integrate their academic studies with experience outside the classroom.

Host Program

Are you willing to host one or two students at your place of work for a half or full day to give them a realistic picture of what your job is like? Career Connections has created the Alumni Host Program which matches alumni with Lewis & Clark students, according to career interest. This program is designed for students to gather career information; they will not be asking you for a job.

Site Visits

Small groups of students spend one to two hours in educational and interactive sessions with Lewis & Clark alumni at their place of employment.

Be Our Guest

Come back to campus and meet with interested students informally over lunch or sit on a panel made up of others in your field or major. You can discuss your career, how you got your foot in the door, classes and other skills that were valuable, graduate school, and anything else you think might be helpful.

L&C Network

Please consider joining the Lewis & Clark Alumni Advisor Network (L&C Network) to assist other alumni and current undergraduates in networking. L&C Network is password protected. You may learn more about the service and how to join by emailing the alumni office at alumni@lclark.edu.

If you would like to get involved in any of these opportunities please contact us at careers@lclark.edu or at (503)768-7114. If there is some other way you would like to assist Lewis & Clark students with their career development, or if you have any questions regarding these opportunities, please let us know. We look forward to hearing from you!
