Join the Staff!

VSA’s work hand in hand with the Viterbi School of Engineering Admission staff year-round by helping to plan events, design publications, and act as liaisons to prospective students and their families. VSA’s are always representing USC and the Viterbi School of Engineering in a polite, professional, and positive way. VSA’s are the best representation of the Viterbi undergraduate population.

Selection to the staff is selective and competitive. Each VSA brings a unique set of qualities and talent to the staff. As a result of the spectrum of events and duties each VSA will participate in – these skills vary widely. Communication & interpersonal skills, computer programming, peer leadership, organizational involvement, academics, project development and enthusiasm for USC & the Viterbi School are all considered.
