Schools have reputations for being leaders in different industries.
The schools' career centers have a wealth of information about their school's specialties, their students' skills and local wage rates. Schools generally don't impose special requirements on employers offering jobs to their students, but for internships, you may need to meet certain criteria. Students may have to attend classes, write papers on your industry or company, or do other assignments related to the internship. A reasonable amount of cooperation and assistance on your part is expected. Student wages vary widely, depending on the location, the industry, the skills sought, and the local employment outlook.
