SFSU Prospective Student - Career Planning Career Planning For most SFSU students, preparing for a satisfying career is an important part of their experience at the University. An internship is work experience directly related to either your major or your career goal.
Internships are among the most valuable career preparation experiences.
By actually working in a specific field, you can discover if it's a good fit for you. In addition, because prospective employers see interns in action and get an excellent idea of their competence and work habits, many interns get hired full time by the firm where they're interning. SFSU's Career Counseling and Development Center offers lists of available internships. In addition to internships, SFSU also offers co-ops. All co-op positions are paid.
