Internships
There are a few things to keep in mind when searching for an internship
- Meet
with a staff member of the Academic & Career Center to explore
options for internships. Additionally, check with your advisor
and/or department chair to find options that may be available
in your field.
-
You need to approach an internship search as you would any other
type of job search. An internship is actually a short-term job
with a specific learning agenda.
-

credit that may apply toward graduation is fifteen.
