Professional Interest Councils (PICs)

PICs are student organizations officially recognized by the Harvard Kennedy School Student Government (KSSG) in the fall of each academic year, whose primary programming centers around career development.

Getting involved with a Student Professional Interest Council (PIC) is a great way to deepen knowledge of and make connections in your professional area of interest.

The Harvard Kennedy School Office of Career Advancement (OCA) supports PICs in the design of career-related programming; assists in the publicity of their events, and helps groups maintain institutional memory from year to year. OCA also facilitates collaboration among PIC leaders in an effort to share best practices, coordinate ideas and share resources.
