Communication Career Day is an annual professional development event for UCSB Communication students, featuring a career advice panel, alumni-student networking, and a departmental news update. 

Each spring the UCSB Communication Alumni Council helps the Department sponsor Communication Career Day. On this day, dozens of alumni return to campus to participate in speed advice sessions that help our undergraduates gain insight into the variety of professions and diverse career paths chosen by our Communication alumni. This annual networking event brings 200+ Communication students together with alumni for career workshops, industry connections, and professional socializing. Students meet with alumni and receive one-on-one career guidance, learn from expert speakers, gain experience, and learn about opportunities as interns or employees, from student/alumni networking sessions.

  • Keynote Speaker and Panel Moderator: Angela Chee, Author of The Power of the Only, and former LA TV News Anchor/Reporter
  • Panel Speakers: Kendra Jackson, Manager of Programming, FOX Sports; Frank Lee, Global Head of Independent Agencies at Snap
