Internships: Edging Past the Competition
It helps to have an edge. And while Cedarville University students receive world-class instruction from their professors as they prepare to pursue careers in their chosen fields, the wise collegian knows that a degree and a good GPA simply aren't enough in an increasingly competitive job market. To succeed, they need real life, hands-on experience.
Enter internships...or more precisely, "discipline-related experiences." Jeff Reep, Associate Director of Career Services, stresses the importance of these short-term forays into the professional world. "A student who graduates with only a degree is at a disadvantage," he explains. "They'll be competing against other graduates who have had two or even three internships."
Take a look at the exciting discipline-related experiences our department's students have enjoyed.
