The University of Florida College of Design, Construction and Planning is seeking a FUN, ENERGETIC intern looking to get relevant PR/Comms experience. You will work closely with the college’s Advancement Team to enhance the name recognition and marketing efforts through various forms of communications (written, visual, digital).

Interns may meet with the advancement team, faculty, students or others, as needed to write stories, etc.

Minimum Experience: Strong writing skills and ability to work independently. Strong interpersonal skills. Proficiency in AP Style. Experience with Microsoft Office, Adobe InDesign and Photoshop is a plus but not required.
