Fellowship & Internship Program
Purpose

Internship and fellowship positions are unique to each department and may be for pay or for academic credit. More importantly, not only do internships help bridge the gap between the academic world and the working world, these hands-on experiences also help students to put theories into practice, and offer opportunities for more personalized learning beyond the traditional classroom setting.
