Internships: Start Early!
We strongly encourage all students to have at least one significant internship or pre-professional experience before they graduate. Studies suggest that internships are the best paths to full-time careers in virtually any field. In addition to the on-line
internship resources listed below, we maintain a large number of internship
openings in the office, including an internship database.
To find comprehensive information about the internship resources available
through the Center, please read A
Few Tips for Finding Internships. A valuable part of the internship learning experience is the reflection that occurs during and after the work itself; we recommend these Reflection Questions to assist you. If you have any questions, comments,
or suggestions, please contact our Internship Coordinator, David Harden.
Internships for Academic Credit:
It is possible for students to earn academic credit if they meet the College's conditions, and the first internship credit is given to students tuition-free! For specific details about the program, see our Academic Internship Program description. To assist you in developing a successful proposal, we urge you to consult our Internship Proposal Guidelines.
