Internships

The MSFS Program assists students in finding internships related to their career objectives. Students are encouraged to work up to 20 hours per week during the academic year and full-time during the summer between the first and second years. The MSFS Internship Coordinator, using a comprehensive data base containing over 1500 internship prospects, works with students to identify internship opportunities that will contribute to their learning and career success.

Internships can be:

  • for a semester or a year
  • paid, unpaid or for academic credit
  • 15-20 hours per week during the school year, full time during the summer
  • an opportunity for potential employers and employees to assess one another
  • a way to add a new dimension to course work and life while developing valuable skills
