Working Remotely for Internships and Co-Ops
Virtual Internships are growing in popularity among employers and students.
A virtual internship is a work experience where the participant (intern) gains practical experience in a professional setting while working remotely instead of being physically present at the job location.
Please contact the Office of Work-Integrated Learning to discuss these opportunities further. Students must have a 2.5 GPA and 60 credits in order to participate in an experiential learning opportunity.
