Consider an internship to enhance your resume. Watch our “Fast Pitch” video about internships.

Internships allow you to apply your education to real-world practice in your chosen field. They are typically part-time positions in which you work approximately 120-175 hours over the course of a semester.  As an intern you will gain valuable experience, have the opportunity to obtain academic credit, and may even get paid. Many organizations use their internship programs as a tool for recruiting entry-level talent.
