Real-World Experience

The more you can an augment your resume with real-world experience, the more you can differentiate yourself from the competition. ÂÒÂ×ÊÓÆµ has a variety of internship opportunities on-campus to help your gain this critical experience. During the internship, you will apply classroom theories and leadership experience to the real-world professional practice. An internship is work-based learning for academic credit and can be paid or unpaid. 

Internships at ÂÒÂ×ÊÓÆµ

All Bachelors' level students must complete both the internship preparation course, for one credit followed by at least one, 3-credit internship prior to graduation. Students are encouraged to complete up to five internships while at Dean. Credit is awarded through the internship course that runs simultaneously with the work-based experience. The online course helps students reflect on their workplace experiences, tying it into the academic learning objectives.

In addition, Dean's Summer LEAD Program offers students an opportunity to pursue a paid on-campus internship, even when school is not in session.
