Internships & Career Resources

Internships

Student internships are available both in the summer and also during the semester. An internship is a wonderful and effective way to connect your academic experience with the professional work arena. It allows you to gain valuable exposure to the workplace, provides the opportunity for skill development, and gives you a competitive edge in the job search.
