Internships & Jobs

Find and secure the experience that will meet your career goals

Internships & Fellowships

Internships are short employment opportunities, paid and unpaid, that allow students to “test drive” an employment opportunity before committing to making it a lifetime career.

Internships offer you the opportunity:

to learn more about a specific job or industry
to understand more about the professional job environment
to build relationships with people that can share information and insight; and
to provide a space to build professional and personal confidence

Employers are more willing to consider students as an applicant if you participated in an internship before, during, or after college. Internships can also add value to graduate admissions essays and applications, which can improve your admittance chances into a program. For more information contact internships@collegefund.org.
