The Recurring Openings page includes recurring opportunities for students as well as internships that are known to the department through networking. These opportunities may or may not have affiliated websites, but will likely have attached job descriptions and contact information. Finally, below you will be able to view a document detailing individual summaries of students' internship experiences. Please use this document as a starting point for researching companies you might be interested in.
We encourage all students to explore internships, study abroad opportunities, part-time experiences, and research opportunities as a method for experiential learning. Real-world experience is invaluable in preparing you for your career and in helping you discern between career options in the future.
