Student Internships

The Seaver College Career Center believes that internships provide an invaluable opportunity for students to explore potential future careers, develop important transferable skills, expand professional networks, and so much more.

Seaver College defines an academic internship as a structured, supervised, professional work experience within an organization. Internships are guided by learning goals and reflective assignments. They are supervised academically by a faculty member and professionally by an internship supervisor.

• Applying academic learning in a work environment connected to potential career pathways
• Contributing to an organization in a meaningful way
• Building relationships and expand your professional network
