Credit-bearing Internships

Credit-bearing Internships are academic courses that combine your academic studies with a work experience related to your major.  In this semester-long course, you will work with your faculty intern advisor and your employer to establish learning objectives to be achieved throughout the semester.  The credits earned will be reflected on your transcript and the related work experience will make you more attractive to employers after graduation.

Check with your academic advisor or with the Office of Career Services to learn how the internship program can work for you.
