Securing an internship is an extensive process with many facets, but always worth it in the end. Internships are an increasingly important part of the college experience. According to the NACE Job Outlook Survey, more than 70% of employers prefer to hire candidates with relevant work experience, and a majority of employers prefer that experience to come through an internship. As a student, an internship gives you the opportunity to build valuable skills and capitalize on your classroom learning.
The Student Success Center offers a full range of internship resources:
