When the Super Bowl comes to town, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in infinite ways. Because of a growing connection between UNLV and the Las Vegas professional sports scene, 24 students have been able to participate in a paid internship experience with the Las Vegas Super Bowl Host Committee.
Students receive direct access and exposure to the world of large-scale event execution with opportunities for hands-on experience in operations, community relations, marketing, digital design, and more.
For many of these students, the internship is about more than just building their resume, but making connections with colleagues and industry professionals that will help them long after they cross the stage at graduation.
