An internship can provide a student with valuable experience in an
industry or company of interest; it may even lead to a permanent job. When approached intentionally, internships can provide students with a host of skills and information that can enhance career opportunities, imbue that career with purpose, and significantly improve the odds
of long-term professional success. In this course, students will develop and articulate a simple statement of purpose that will
connect them more explicitly with their work and enable them to articulate their personal brand more effectively. They will proactively create a network of collaborators and mentors, simultaneously build the capacity to work in teams, learn from the experiences of those ahead of them, and enhance their ability to speak persuasively in professional settings. This experiential-learning course uses a variety of activities to support student development including articles, podcasts, videos, and guest speakers from the entrepreneurial and corporate worlds. Course experiences will equip students with the tools to perform more effectively in their internships and to extend what they learn to their careers.
