Internships
A good internship might be your first step towards a fulfilling career. Internships can be done for either credit or monetary compensation, but not both. See the internship for credit page for more information.
Internship VS Co-Op
What’s the difference between an internship and a co-op and how do you know which one is right for you?
Internship
Internships typically last a single semester, or during the summer. Internships during the semester should be on a part-time basis, while summer internships can be part-time or full-time. Internships can be done for credit or can be paid but not both. The internship must be done at a professional organization and involve doing work that relates to their major.
Co-Op
A co-op is a six- toeight-monthcommitment where students work full-time at a professional organization doing duties that relate to their major. These positions are typically paid and can only be done during the spring and summer of a student’s junior year. Co-ops cannot be done for credit and must be coordinated with an academic or career advisor.
