Canisius Internships

Internships help students develop important career and interpersonal skills which extend learning beyond the classroom. Colleges and employers recognize that having internship experience is a key factor in future hiring.

Internships not only benefit students by providing meaningful experience and improving career prospects, but they provide an opportunity for students to explore career interests, possibly earn credit toward their degree, and establish contacts for networking.
 
Given that Canisius College is located in a metropolitan area, local access to employers and organizations provides diverse opportunities for internships. Academic departments, and the director of internships, located in the Canisius College Career Center, assist students in exploring and obtaining internships suited to individual interests.

Students intern regularly in a variety of settings including headquarters of major corporations, nonprofit organizations, art and cultural institutions, professional sports teams, local businesses, government, and human service agencies. Our alumni understand the benefits of internships and are very active in developing opportunities for current students. For more information please contact Roslyn Colón, Director of Internships.
