Student Advice

"Always be planning ahead for the future and thinking about different opportunities you might want to try—the earlier you start on things, the more likely they are to materialize. In addition, recognize that getting a less-than-perfect job one year may lead to your dream internship in the future—I know that putting my time in domestically helped considerably in securing my international job with DoS. Though one internship may have been far more glamorous than the other, both were incredible learning experiences and served me well in different ways. Everything is cumulative."

Internships

Internships are supervised work experiences in which students combine critical thinking and intentional reflection with your liberal arts interests. By embarking on an internship, you will be able to sharpen your skills, develop career interests and employer contacts, assess your strengths, and connect classroom theories to practice in real world settings.
