Career Services

Apply for an Internship

Our internships are rigorously vetted to ensure quality and educational value. While you do your internship you’ll also take an Internship Studies class to make sure you get the most out of your experience.
For Internship Sponsors
By sponsoring an intern, your organization can discover new talent, get fresh ideas from motivated students, and help train the workforce of the future.
Experience That Matters
In a typical year, two-thirds of FIT students graduate with an internship under their belt. This real-world experience gives them a competitive edge in the industry.
