Internships

Internships are invaluable opportunities for you to explore different career options, expand your professional network, build your resume, and bolster your chance of securing a good job after graduation. Internships can be local, national, international, or virtual. They can be paid or unpaid, full or part-time, for academic credit or not. Internships should be a win-win situation that sees both intern and host organization benefit; internships should be structured, supervised, and framed with learning goals and evaluation.

It’s never too early to start thinking about internships, and planning well in advance will mean you have a good number of opportunities available to you.
