STUDENT PROGRAM SCHOLARSHIP
Student Internships
At the A-CAPP Center, we strive to develop the future leaders in the world of anti-counterfeiting and brand protection. Our students are exposed to research on brand protection and anti-counterfeiting, outreach projects, education projects and more through our internship program.
Community Outreach & Education in Brand Protection
The A-CAPP Center is committed to furthering the advancement within the field of brand protection. This felloswhip provides funding to an MSU student coming from across the University’s broad spectrum of experiences and identities who will enrich the brand protection profession and help educate the MSU community on critical brand protection issues.
In memory of a previous student intern, the A-CAPP Center awards MSU students interested in exploring a career in brand protection. The goal of the fellowship is to provide a tailored internship experience that combines practical learning, networking and mentorship with academic work for a unique professional development experience. An individual research project is highly recommended though not required.
The A-CAPP Center’s annual two and half day summit brings together key stakeholders for both closed and open interactive discussions through panels, hot topic sessions, high top talks, and strategy sessions that focus on the four strategic initiatives of the A-CAPP Center around brand protection and anti-counterfeiting.
