The English Department offers a variety of internship opportunities that allow students to explore writing and language in the workplace. Through the semester-long partnership with a community agency, students will practice writing across diverse contexts, develop strong professional communication skills, learn new technologies, gather workplace writing experience, and extend their professional network.
We work with local nonprofits, publishers, and businesses to provide internships in acquisitions, copy editing, content writing, event planning, and social-media management, among other options. It is most appropriate to take an internship course in the junior or senior year of your academic career, and students of any major can take a LIT or LANG 340 internship course.
