Internships/Externships
Internship Benefits
Preparation for long-term goals – Employers and graduate schools are looking for the same thing – students with excellent and relevant skills. Internships will allow you to gain work experience complementing your coursework at Susquehanna.
An introductory “course” in a company or industry – Explore your career options in a specific field and evaluate a particular company or organization. An internship can help you decide if a particular career direction and a specific company culture are right for you.
Full-time employment opportunities – Internships will expand networking circles and can lead to job offers, sometimes before the start of senior year.
Alumni Voices
During my time at Susquehanna, I held two internships. These experiences prepared me for the working world by providing me with firsthand experience in marketing that made my résumé stand out.
