Internships
for Work and Research Experience

Internships offer significant work and/or research experience and can be paid or unpaid (you work on a volunteer basis). Internships are usually selective (which means not everyone who applies is hired); however, many internships would like to increase participation by historically underrepresented groups including qualified Hispanic and Latino/x students.
