Using Semester at Trilith as a case study, we’ll explore how industry-embedded education can help students gain greater exposure to professional environments, understand how an industry actually operates, and build meaningful context around the careers they’re preparing to enter.

The Trilith Institute team recently hit the road for study abroad events at two of our university partners. 🎓🎬

Dr. Jasmin Goodman, Senior Director of Academic Programming, connected with students at Georgia Southern University, while Marketing Manager Simone Jennings spent time at Clemson University sharing more about Semester at Trilith.

Across both campuses, we had the opportunity to meet interested students, answer questions, build new connections, and spend time with the university partners helping make these experiences possible.

Semester at Trilith gives college students the opportunity to step beyond the traditional classroom and experience learning within the film and television industry ecosystem at Trilith.

And the opportunity isn’t limited to our current partner schools. Semester at Trilith is open to students from all colleges and universities.
