As school begins to near, you’re probably thinking about whether you need to bring the microwave, how many bulky sweaters to pack and how many to get later, and how awesome it will feel to be back on the hill. All great thoughts as fall looms.
But have you thought about registering for a fall internship??
Fall internships are incredibly opportunities to get both academic credit and real world work experience. And best of all, you CAN fit one into your busy schedule of classes, sports, and clubs! A semester internship can be done for as few as ten hours a week and as many as forty hours a week – your academic credit will vary with your hours.
Come on into the Career Center to set up an appointment with Corrie Odland (x7532, codland@gustavus.edu) and discuss how to find an internship. Better yet, attend a workshop – times and dates announced next week!
