Internships

The Silicon Valley Program internship is an integral part of the intern’s academic curriculum. During the internship engagement, the student will participate in two seminar courses and will write an independent or small-group research paper on a topic of the students’ particular interest. The internship program should provide students with the means to apply academic principles to real-world corporate challenges in a structured setting. Internships will be secured in marketing, human resources, product development, customer service, finance, engineering, and other corporate functions. They may feature significant quantitative and analytical duties. All internships must provide students with the types of experiences that would be afforded to early-career professional staff.
