Internships are invaluable opportunities for students, offering them practical, hands-on experience in real-world settings that enhance their academic learning. By working closely with professionals, students can apply theoretical knowledge to actual projects, gaining insights into diverse fields such as organizational development, consumer experience, UX design . This exposure not only clarifies their career interests but also builds essential skills and professional networks, empowering them to make informed career decisions and succeed in today’s dynamic workforce.

We invite our alumni to partner with us in offering valuable internship experiences to our students. To ensure a meaningful engagement, we ask that internships meet the following requirements: a minimum commitment of 240 hours, with students working approximately 20 hours per week. We welcome internships across all academic terms—Summer, Fall, and Spring—to provide flexibility for both students and employers. We also welcome full-time role offerings, allowing students to transition seamlessly from academic training to professional careers within your organization.
