A limited number of interns/externs are selected from our program partners each semester to participate.

Internships

Internships are a carefully monitored and paid work experience through which students can pursue intentional learning goals and reflect actively on what they are learning throughout the experience.

Externships

Externships consist of unpaid experiential learning opportunities where students collaborate with their degree program to obtain class credit or to otherwise incorporate the externship into their course of study.
