Since its inception in 2008, the annual Human Development and Family Science (HDFS) Internship and Professional Day has grown to include attendance by over 250 undergraduate majors and more than 45 university, local and regional program representatives. At this event, students are provided with an exclusive venue to learn about careers in Human Development and Family Science and to discover opportunities for practicum, service-learning and full-time internship positions. Through conversations with our community representatives, students also have occasion to hone their professional communication skills.
