Consider the following questions to help narrow down your search:

• When do you want to complete the internship?
• Can you afford an unpaid internship?
• Where can you realistically travel?
• Is transportation a concern? There may be On-Campus Internships
• Creating an Environment for a Successful Remote/Virtual Environment (PDF)
• When your schedule or finances limit your options, consider a Virtual Internship 鈥� A virtual internship is a form of experiential learning not bound by time, a physical location or space. Remote by definition, a virtual internship allows you to expand cultural competencies by experiencing global work spaces out of your time zone and perhaps out of your comfort zone! Develop in-demand skills such as internet and digital literacy; time and project management; organization; project and task performance; self-motivation and direction; problem-solving; and communication across multiple platforms.
