What is an Internship?
An internship is an opportunity to work for a semester in a setting that is similar to one where you would like to work after you graduate. In addition to gaining valuable experience, students participating in the University Internship Program also earn academic credit. Internships are designed for juniors and seniors and are only available to students with good academic standing.
