Virtual Grad Fair – National Council on Public History (NCPH)

NCPH is hosting its inaugural virtual Grad Fair on October 9 & 10, 2025. This two-day event will combine a career fair-style “Virtual Program Hall” experience with live and pre-recorded sessions for prospective grad students.

Go from virtual booth to virtual booth to collect information and network; live sessions geared at undergraduate students will be hosted from 3:00-5:00 pm Eastern on both days (4 live sessions in total). In addition, there will be a repository of pre-recorded sessions about the public history field from NCPH committees. 

Prospective grad students can register now for FREE at  https://community.ncph.org/event/GradFair2025. Prospective students should select the free prospective student ticket.

In addition to the Grad Fair, NCPH also recently published The Graduate Student Handbook: Choosing and Thriving in a Public History Program. This free resource tackles every aspect of grad school, from choosing and applying to the right program (and paying for it) to succeeding in the program.
