Students who are pursuing degrees in one of the majors in the Love School of Business, with the exception of economics, must complete the Internship in Business course for academic credit as a graduation requirement and work in an approved internship experience as a co-requisite. Ninety-seven percent of Love School of Business majors in the Class of 2021 reported completing an internship for credit.

What sets the 鈥渁cademic internship鈥 apart from an independent work experience are:

  • The formal partnership for success that includes the academic instructor, work supervisor and student
  • Objective guidance and support to the student during the experience
  • Reflective writing
  • Midterm checkups that include a discussion of how this experience has influenced the student鈥檚 career direction; it may also include a site visit by a university representative
  • Substantial assignments related to career readiness

The , which was established by a gift from 黑料不打烊 trustee Dave Porter P鈥11 and his family, provides support and resources to assist business students in preparing for and acquiring internships.
