Create a Quality Internship
A quality internship provides our students with first-hand exposure to the practical aspects of your company’s operation.

It benefits both you, and our students, if your internship includes:

• Clear description of duties (so applicants understand your expectations)
• Productive and relevant duties
• Appropriate orientation and training
• Access to professionals for guidance/mentoring
• Ongoing, open communication with our team of career experts

When to Host an Internship
Our three-month internships run during all four academic terms: Summer (Jun-Aug), Fall (Sep-Nov), Winter (Dec-Feb) and Spring (Mar-May).

Post an internship 3-6 months in advance, so our career experts can ensure that you get the right candidates.
