The experience gained from an internship has the potential to launch a student’s career. Many employers utilize the internship process as an early screening and/or hiring tool.

CCA's Career Development Office partners with industry-leading companies to offer opportunities for students to link theory with practice while earning academic credit. Review just some of the innovative companies where our talented students have held internships, and learn about their internship experiences through first-hand testimonials. Be sure to meet with someone on the Career Development Team to fine tune your internship search process, prepare your resume/cover letter, review your portfolio, and practice for your interview. Applying for an internship should be taken as seriously as a full job search.
