Prestigious Internships, Valuable Experience

One of the Career Center’s greatest strengths is its ability to help interested students find meaningful internship experiences. Internships are important opportunities for students to gain experience and training related to their career and academic interests. A successful internship should contain a learning component and a greater understanding of the organization and the industry within which the internship takes place. The Career Center recommends students participate in internships to help clarify their career decisions.

The Career Center’s most recent Summer Internship Survey had more than 2,300 student responses, with over 1,450 students reporting that they had summer internships. Internship employers this year included: Accenture, Boston Scientific, Cornell Medical Center, Goldman Sachs, Google, Greenpeace, the Mayo Clinic, Microsoft, Motorola, Raytheon, Relay Worldwide, the White House, and the U.S. Senate. Nearly 100 students participated in international internships in Argentina, Bolivia, Canada, Chile, China, El Salvador, England, India, Japan, Kenya, Korea, Spain, Thailand, and Uganda.
