Held every fall semester, the Internship Expo at the Dedman School of Hospitality invites 30 top hospitality organizations to Florida State University’s campus to recruit our best and brightest hospitality management students for internships.

Interview rooms are available on the day of the Internship Expo and for the two days following the event for one-on-one interviews. Participating companies also are invited to presentations prior to scheduled interviews. Rooms for interviews and presentations can be requested on the Internship Expo Registration Form.

Sponsorship opportunities are available to organizations wishing to boost brand recognition and prominence. Sponsorship funds support student participation and help establish an endowment for future events. For more information, see the Sponsorship section below.
