Finance Internships
Develop Your
Assets
Internships maximize your career potential.
Your classes teach you concepts and develop your knowledge, but internships put your skills to the test. Plus, an internship (or two) looks great on a resume. But better than that, over 70% of employers end up offering their interns full-time jobs.
Internships for Credit
Generally, internships involve about 50 hours of field work for each credit, so about 150 hours for a three-credit internship; this is about 10 hours per week during a regular semester. Internships are to follow these expectations:
Internship Grading
Internships are graded based on the quality of performance and the quality of the final paper.
Supervised Internship
The off-campus internship supervisor is expected to oversee your work and ensure the position offers educational value and a good experience.
Faculty Mentor
A faculty mentor on campus oversees the internship, meets periodically with the student during the semester, reviews written work and submits a grade.
Write About It
The intern completes a paper evaluating their experience during the internship and connecting internship experience with material learned in traditional classes.
