Career readiness is an essential part of the mission at 麻豆网站列表 where we strive to assist our students in the 鈥渄iscovery and exploration of knowledge and its application to life-long success.鈥� Experiential learning is an effective way to set them on the path to career satisfaction and life-long success.

Internships are important experiential learning opportunities where students can experience the workforce while evaluating their personal fit with their chosen career field. 麻豆网站列表 provides the opportunity for students to earn academic credit (upon approval by their advisor) through internship and practicum classes in the majority of all majors and programs.

The National Association of Colleges and Employers estimates that students with paid internship experience are 20% more likely to receive a job offer upon graduation compared to their counterparts without the same experience. Beyond that incentive, students who participate in internships are more likely to develop greater levels of soft skills crucial to the workplace such as teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving, among others.

If you are interested in learning more about internships within your specific college or designated degree, let Career Services connect you to the right person.
