Internships and Resources

Internships can give you valuable experience working for an employer in your chosen field or one you want to explore. They can help you with your career decision making process by allowing you to “test the waters” to see what a field is really about. Internships can be paid or unpaid, part-time or full-time. While many companies have formal internship programs, many students create their own. Especially if you are not participating in co-op, you’ll find that internships pay off in real-world work experience that enhances your resume and gives you an edge in a job search.

For internships for which the employer requires academic credit, Career Services offers MCOPU181, Internship for Career Decision Making, a one-credit elective. Email Tina Mello, t.mello@neu.edu for more information about the course.

For information on internships in general, please schedule an appointment with the liaison to your college.
