• Assistance in completing special projects
• Savings in training costs
• More cost-effective and efficient method of recruitment
• Regular flow of talent
• Effective way to evaluate potential employees
• Good word-of-mouth advertising/public relations
Internships are an average of 15 weeks in length and 5-10 hours per week for 1-2 credits
per semester. Students are responsible for the completion of their internship contract as
well and completing time sheets.
