Internships
The Professional Practice (Internship) Program offers students the opportunity to integrate classroom knowledge with a "real world" work experience in accounting. The experience allows students to explore a career path in accounting, career development, mentorship, valuable experience in their field of study, and gain academic credit.
All majors in the College of Business offer internship opportunities. In addition, departments in the college provide an internship coordinator that works with students and employers to ensure that the internship experience is meaningful. Each year more than 350 business students participate in internship and professional practice programs with business and government to gain practical work experience related to their academic careers.
Students are eligible to receive academic credit for a qualified internship. Contact the Internship Coordinator for your program to discuss your options.
Many firms/companies have found participating in our internship program to be a successful way to recruit accounting talent.
