Diederich Experience

Diederich Experience trips are unique opportunities for upperclassmen to connect with Marquette alumni who have built successful careers in their respective fields. These trips allow students to practice engaging with industry professionals, begin to build their networks and refine their post-graduation plans.

Students travel in a group with faculty chaperones to a city where Diederich College alumni are actively working. During these trips, students have opportunities to meet with alumni and ask questions about their work while exploring the field of communication.

Two choices between the semesters

Just before the spring semester begins in January 2024, we will be taking two separate groups of students to two different locations: Washington, DC, and San Juan, Puerto Rico. Students can apply for one or the other of these experiences.
