What Is An Internship?

An internship is a valuable opportunity for students to gain supervised, practical work experience at a major company or organization. Sometimes it is part of a degree requirement, such as a medical internship for a student who wants to be a doctor. However, this is not always the case. Many students will voluntarily pursue internships in order to enhance their skills. Others will do so because it looks good on a resumé.

Nearly every major company in the United States has an internship program. Such programs are typically active in the summer time, but more and more are offering fall, spring, and winter internships as well. They can last anywhere from a couple of weeks to several months. Some offer compensation to students, and some don't. Some will even pay for the student's living expenses if they are from out-of-state. The criteria and rules for an internship can and usually do vary.
