Student Member Advisory Committee

SMAC members will spend the year providing ICSC with advice, insight and feedback on our student programs and resources. This is your opportunity to guide how ICSC supports the over 8,000 ICSC Student Members.

In our efforts to create a pipeline of new talent into the retail real estate industry, we need to hear from student leaders. ICSC will select an array of candidates from a pool of submitted applications each spring. 

SMAC Structure & Terms

ICSC will publish the SMAC application and make selections each spring. Up to 15 students will be selected to represent their college or university on the committee, and no college or university will be represented by more than one student. A committee member’s term lasts one year, and no member may serve more than two terms on the committee.
 
The committee will meet throughout the academic year to provide ICSC with feedback, participate in professional development, and be a resource to other student members.
