Industry Immersions (Treks)


What is an Industry Immersion (Trek)? 

Industry Immersions (also known as treks) are opportunities to create a deep and lasting impression on students by bringing them to your company site. Industry Immersions sometimes include visits to multiple companies.

Because of the considerable logistics involved, these opportunities are carefully vetted by Career Center staff.  

Industry Immersions are usually 2-4 hours per company. Itineraries typically include some or all of the following activities: 

  • Company tour - Give students a behind-the-scenes look
  • Panel discussion and Q&A - Share what it's like working at your company
  • Lunch and Learn - Invite your employees to enjoy lunch with students
  • Product demo or training - Help students understand your products and services
  • Job shadow - Give students an opportunity to shadow one of your employees

We suggest planning for 10-30 students. When hosting an Industry Immersion, we encourage employers to invite to participate any Santa Clara alumni who are already working at your company as well as members of your company's senior leadership team.
