Internship – 4-part course series

Imagine being good at words. When you decide to speak, the message you convey successfully connects with your intended audience. What does that say about your career prospects? What does that say about your comfort level in social situations? And perhaps most importantly, what does that say about your satisfaction with your personal relationships?

This internship is designed to help you find out. Based on an award-winning series of courses and workshops at the University of Michigan, it is designed for students preparing to enter a wide range of fields:

  • Sentences
  • business
  • medicine
  • Social work
  • Public policy
  • Design
  • engineering

We all have ideas worth sharing. Why not learn to communicate yours so that others will appreciate, enjoy, and remember them?

Hands-on Learning Project

This internship offers you opportunities to practice everything from giving a speech, to presenting an idea, to delivering a meaningful apology. The communication skills you learn can help you:

  • Resolve conflicts
  • Promote a cause
