Department of English

Internships

This site provides you with the information you need to participate in the English Department's Internship program. It explains how the knowledge and skills you've learned as an English major or minor can be applied to practical workplace experience. Internships earn academic credit that can be used toward your degree and provide you with valuable on-the-job experience which can make a big difference later, when you begin to look for a job after graduation.

Additionally, our interns make professional connections that often prove useful when they need a recommendation from someone who knows them and how they perform in the workplace.
