MELT University

MELT U exists because someone gave our founder a shot in 1984.

Vince Thompson was a student assistant in Auburn’s Sports Information office and sports editor of The Auburn Plainsman. MELT U is the version of that opportunity we can hand to somebody else.

Pick the part of the
business you want.

Experiential & production

On site at live events: load-in, footprint management, field team support, teardown.

Content & social

Capture, edit, schedule and report. You will publish things real people see.

Account & strategy

Briefs, budgets, timelines, client comms and post-program reporting.

Culinary

Work alongside MELT Culinary on prep specs, chef coordination and sampling logistics.

How it works

Four steps.

01

Apply

A short application and something you’ve made. Portfolio optional, effort obvious.

02

Conversation

Twenty minutes with the team you’d actually work with.

03

Placement

You’re assigned to a track and a live programme, not a filing cabinet.

04

Reference

You leave with credits, a reference and, often enough, an offer.

Speaker series

People worth
listening to.

Every intake gets a run of sessions with operators from across sports, media and CPG — recorded and published so the value doesn’t stop at the room.
