Truman Engaging Missouri Employers and Alumni to Create Student Opportunities

Truman is actively expanding its employer partnerships for 2026, and alumni connections are one of the most impactful ways students gain access to meaningful opportunities.

Alumni working at organizations that hire interns or early career talent are encouraged to connect with the Career Center. Participating alumni do not need to be recruiters or hiring managers. They just need to share information about their organizations, including who handles early career hiring or recruiting. Alumni referrals often lead to stronger, longer-term employee partnerships. 

Interested alumni can contact Kim Sprought, director of internships, at ksprought@truman.edu or 660.785.4006. 

Truman is also inviting Missouri-based employers to engage with students this spring. New employers in the University’s recruiting network can receive a one-time reduced rate for participating in the Career Fair. 

The Spring 2026 Grad School Fair and Career and Internship Fair are scheduled for Feb. 25 and Feb. 26, respectively. More information is available at career.truman.edu.
