Public Impact Fair: Student Details

The Public Impact Fair: Careers and Resources runs adjacent to Industrial Roundtable. The fair is open to all majors at Purdue University who desire to make a positive public impact in advocacy, administration, or service positions. This fair brings together government, non-profit, and industry employers to offer internships and careers in a variety of local, state, and federal government fields. It also provides information on resources to make the aspiration of working in places such as Washington D.C. a reality.

Please note that the Public Impact Fair has passed for this year, and more information about the 2026 fair will be available soon.

To attend the fair as a student, please create a myCCO account and indicate that you will be attending on this page.
