An internship is a pre-professional short-term work experience that gives you "hands-on" experience in a particular field or industry. There are many advantages to completing one or more internships prior to graduation.

Why are internships important?

  • Allows you to "test drive" a particular career path and clarify goals.
  • When pursuing professional employment you will have developed skills and knowledge, which are marketable to employers.
  • Internships can result in full-time job offers. You will gain potential networking contacts as well as professional references.
  • Your course work makes more sense when related to hands-on work.
