Internships
The hallmark of a Hardrocker education is our hands-on experience. The real-world happens beyond the classroom. So should your education.
Internships, co-ops, and research provide unmatched opportunities for students to apply classroom learning to real-world careers. Last year, 77% of students landed paid internships and co-ops (semester-long experiences for credit) at 252 companies in 44 states averaging
$17.86 per hour. Some participated in paid research positions. 100% gained industry expertise second to none at companies such as Garmin, NASA, Newmont, Microsoft, POET, and the American Museum of Natural History.
