Hello,
First let me start off by introducing myself. I’m Katie Prchlik, the new Director of Marketing and Fan Engagement at Northwestern. Previously I was at Nebraska for the last two and half years as their Assistant Director of Marketing and Fan Experience. I’ve overseen and ran intern programs at Utah State, Nebraska and now here at Northwestern. This is something I am passionate about and know that without our interns we would not be able to do what we do. I know the biggest thing that has played a role in me getting to a full-time career in the sports industry were the internships I had throughout my college career.
The Northwestern Athletics Marketing department is looking for a group of motivated interns for the 2022-23 School year and/or Fall 2022. We are reaching out to ask for your assistance in promoting our Athletic Department’s Marketing Internship program.
We are searching for aspiring sports business professionals eager to get hands-on experience for the Fall and Winter seasons. In addition to working with our marketing team, interns are taught about other facets of athletics programs such as gameday operations, in-game promotions, event planning, and ticket sales.
Our program and intern descriptions are linked below. Please pass this information along with individuals you think may be interested in this role! You can also visit our brand-new landing page for more information. We have updated our job posting on Handshake for a number of institutions. Applicants without access to Handshake are welcome to apply by emailing wildcatmarketing@northwestern.edu.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions, or to connect our office directly with interested individuals or groups. Thank you for being a great and valued partner of ours!
Go ‘Cats!
