Work Experiences Supervised work experiences allow you to apply classroom theory to real problems. Most often they reaffirm your career goals and provide you with an invaluable advantage in the job market once you graduate. You may work part or full time, for a summer or longer, in a position related to your major. Opportunities exist for students at most levels, from those who have completed a minimum number of classes in their major to those who are preparing for graduation. Often students are paid for their work as they earn academic credit.
Many programs require students to complete a work experience, while others offer it as an option.
These experiences include cooperative education , internships , field experiences , practicums and clinical experiences. Study Abroad Studying in a foreign country can be an interesting and enriching part of your undergraduate experience. The Office of International Programs can help you apply for international study opportunities in many regions, including Australia, England, Germany, Mexico, Scotland, Sweden and Wales.
