Chicago summer INTERNSHIP PROGRAM

Internship Program Speakers

The Chicago Speaker Series occurs once per week after work where industry professionals share their success stories and outline the essential aspects of preparing for life after college. Each speaker shares tips for finding your dream job out of college and how they got into their specific career.

The Chicago Speaker Series is an invaluable aspect of the University of Dreams Internship Program, as it allows students to gain insight and knowledge from true industry professionals. Also, students can spend time networking with speakers, as they answer individual questions at the end of the speech. Each speaker has a unique perspective on success and the value of the speaker series is immeasurable.

The purpose of the series is to inspire you to really think about what you want to do with your life, equip you with necessary knowledge, and then challenge you to go for it. The guests will provide you with the insight you will need to make that happen. Below is a snapshot of the quality of speakers who attended in 2007.
