Internships
Internship and Practicum opportunities when available will be posted here.
An internship or practicum will allow you to integrate classroom theory with real life experiences, demonstrate the relevance of your course work, and motivate you to learn more. It will allow you to explore a potential career field, and develop career-related skills and abilities while observing professional people in the workplace. All internships or practicums are unpaid and offered in cooperation with your college or university.
