Pace introduces Public Interest Career Exposure Program
The Public Interest Career Exposure (PICE) program is an externship program that offers Princeton undergraduates the opportunity to start investigating a career field of interest and make professional connections by spending time with alumni in their workplaces. In its first year, the Public Interest Career Exposure program is scheduled during the Intersession break (January 28-February 1, 2008) and again during the Spring break (March 17-21, 2008).
Externships offer no pay and are 1-5 consecutive days, with the length of the placement predetermined by the alumni sponsor. This is a new initiative developed by the Pace Center, Princeton’s advocate and resource for civic engagement and public service. Pace is seeking alumni who are willing to host an extern at their nonprofit/public interest workplace. For information about hosting an extern, please contact Elsie Sheidler, sheidler@princeton.edu or 609-258-7783 by October 31.
