In the School of Packaging, selection for an internship is a competitive process. Information about available positions is made available to all students.
Students then sign up for an interview with representatives of the company.
After the interviews, the company representatives select a student to fill the position. A Career Fair, held in January or February of each year, provides another opportunity for the interview process. In addition, some companies send representatives to campus at other times. A few students repeat the internship experience. A second internship provides an opportunity for additional experience with a company in a completely different field or with a different company in the same field.
