Most MBA students in the 1-year cohort program have a strong sense of where
they want to be professionally in five or ten years. And, while they recognize
the significance of the MBA to making those professional goals a reality, many
students don’t know the many avenues they can take to reach their goals, and may
not have practical experiences to validate their academic proficiency.
- Internships enable you to better synthesize and practice with theory.
- Internships are extremely valuable personal marketing tools and
outstanding resume enhancers. They improve your professional credential by
providing work experience in your field of interest.
- Internships provide great networking both within the organization of the
internship and with contacts you meet as a result of the organizational
connections.
- Internships can provide work-related references for future employment.
- Internships give you some insight into various positions, organizations
and industries.
- With an internship, you can gain a greater appreciation for work
environments you like or dislike.
- Internships afford you the opportunity to experience the breadth and
depth of responsibilities various positions have.
