You can take advantage of one of the hundreds of organized internships through the Internship and Career Center or initiate your own.
An internship may be full time or part time, credit or non-credit, voluntary or involving a stipend, depending on your needs and interests and the availability of openings. Internship experiences must emphasize learning rather than routine activities, include field supervision by a qualified professional and, where appropriate, the faculty member responsible for giving credit. Academic credit is awarded only for experiences planned and approved in advance by the sponsoring faculty member.

If you are an undergraduate, graduate or alumnus, ICC can help you identify your abilities and interests and relate them to jobs; gain access to practical experience to increase your competitiveness in the job market; and find out how and where to look for the jobs you want. If you are considering dropping out of the university for a term or longer, an adviser can also give you information about internships and employment opportunities.
The Career and Graduate Study Resource Room (1st floor, South Hall) contains materials that can help you learn how your major field of study can be translated into job opportunities, and data concerning types of employment graduates have obtained. Useful to job-seekers—and available free of charge—is ICC's Career Resource Manual, which provides guidelines for preparing a resume, tips on being interviewed and information on employment in government, business and education.
The office solicits and maintains job vacancy listings, arranges employment interviews and schedules on-campus recruiting by employers.
