Internship Courses

Internships Help You Build Experience

Experience helps you become a competitive candidate for jobs in your field after you graduate.  We recommend all students complete an internship, but requirements vary by major. By participating in an internship or cooperative program, students can receive academic credit while gaining work experience and earning money to support their education.

Internship/Co-Op Course

Our office offers elective credit for internship and co-op experiences (COE 3948-4949), while your (major) department might have some additional course options for you.
