Finding Internships

Student-Arranged Opportunities

Students may also participate in independently-arranged experiential learning experiences. This would include any internships, mentorships, work-study opportunities, etc. that a student finds on his/her own through various resources. Placement Services would like to request that students register their student-arranged opportunity for tracking and documentation purposes, even if that opportunity was discovered by means other than through the Placement Services office by simply emailing Mrs. Kelly Robucci
