DIVE IN: Diversity & Inclusion in Media and Brand Education
Clemson University's annual immersive brand communications program
DIVE IN is an annual experiential brand communications camp hosted by Clemson University's Erwin Center for Brand Communications that seeks to aid in building a more inclusive and diverse workforce in brand marketing, media, creative strategy and business. This program provides opportunities for college students to engage with professional brand leaders and learn more about career opportunities in brand management, advertising, media, PR and sports marketing. Rising Sophomores, Juniors, Seniors and 1st-year graduate students are encouraged to apply to our spring program every year.
This week-long camp includes in-person site visits to brands and marketing agency partner locations. Our program offers opportunities for hands-on and personalized professional development, mentorship, and awareness of career roles in the realm of brand communications. Scholars will work alongside brand and agency professionals to discuss brand challenges throughout the week.
Each day, the program covers foundational principles and best practices in brand building and strategy with accompanying teamwork sessions alongside mentors from the professional and academic brand leadership industry.
Applications are currently closed.
