Internship Program

An internship is a general term referring to a partnership between students, institutions of higher education and employers that integrates students' academic study with work or community service experience. 

Internships are of a specific and definite duration and provide a student the opportunity to explore areas of interest. Internships are currently non-credit courses and may provide students with compensation in the form of wages or salaries, stipends or scholarships. Students have the opportunity to build their resumes through internship experiences.

Students must register for the non-credit internship course. Contact the Career Center staff to do this.

• One internship course is equivalent to 100 hours of relevant work
• Internships may be paid or unpaid
• Students who prepare with workshops and one-on-one coaching appointments increase their likelihood of securing a relevant internship.

Qualifications include:

• Minimum 2.0 GPA
• Completion of at least 12 credit hours
• A pass/no pass will be assigned at the end of 100 hours
