Internships

The College of Engineering encourages you to participate in one or more internships that are related to your major.

What is an internship?

An internship is an integral part of engineering education. Professional learning experiences in industry and government let you to apply classroom learning to real-world situations. They can help you:

  • acquire professional experience
  • discover your interests within your major
  • develop practical engineering skills and judgement
  • explore the types of employment available in the field
  • build resume credentials
  • enhance career and graduate school potential

Faculty oversight is an important part of the process. Internships must have:

  • clear learning outcomes
  • training and supervision, both on the job and by a faculty sponsor

Finding an internship

Use a variety of approaches when searching for an internship.
