Here, all your questions will be answered! You all can have easy access to various internships (both paid and unpaid) during the spring and summer months. This page will be regularly updated with new internships that range from the sciences to the arts. 

What is an internship?

An opportunity where students work in temporary positions in the area or field they are interested in. Students may gain "work experiences" and valuable skills (communication, organization, time management, etc.) that can be applied in the real world.
