Internships

Graduate internship programs are offered in several disciplines. A graduate internship is a short-term work assignment (3 to 9 months) in residence at a company or other external organization that forms an integral part of a student's educational program. 

Two options are available for scheduling students' work and study activities: parallel and alternating formats. Under the parallel format, students work full-time during the summer. The alternating option permits cycles of full-time work and full-time study. Departments may allow students to take a course or courses during the full-time work cycle. Consult department descriptions for more information.

Students participating in graduate internships must be registered in a specific course. An internship will appear on the transcript either with or without credit. Students may not participate as interns at their place of employment.
