The Career Services Center looks forward to working with you in person or virtually to help you develop the skills to find any type of internship - paid, unpaid, credit bearing, non-credit bearing. The ideal time to begin your search is during your sophomore year. Before making any internship plans, we encourage you to review the information provided online about Clarion University's internship policies and procedures. Contact your academic departmental internship coordinator to discuss internship opportunities, program requirements, and application procedures prior to making plans for a credit-bearing internship.
