Benefits Internship Process Return Home . An internship is a work experience related to a student's academic major and is integrated with his or her career goals. The internship experience enables the student to increase the relevance of coursework to actual work situations. It is ultimately the student's responsibility to arrange the internship with the help of the Internship Coordinator and the Faculty Sponsor.
Employers view internship candidates much the same way they view applicants for permanent positions.
Employers have the right to accept or reject interested students. The student and the employer should reach full understanding regarding specific duties and responsibilities of the internship. The final job description should integrate the career goals of the students with the needs of the organization. Students who are interested in an internship should begin the search for a work site prior to the semester the internship is desired. The internship application must be submitted and approved before the beginning of the semester.
