*Only open to currently enrolled John Cabot students.

Highlights

An internship is a short-term employment opportunity, often unpaid, that allows the intern to combine classroom learning with hands-on work experience prior to graduation. In the program, a student:
* Earns up to 3 credit hours/per internship, while gaining practical experience in a work environment
* Works for an organization for a 120 to 150 contact hours during a normal 14-week semester
* Receives a Pass/Not Pass grade, given by a member of the John Cabot Faculty
A successful internship should produce significant learning through exposure to "real" projects and organizational problems, development of technical skills needed in a chosen field and increased insight regarding the organizational work environment and the interns own strengths and weaknesses in the chosen field.
