Internships
Internships are an excellent way to acquire international work experience. This experience will increase your marketability when you graduate, and it will help you decide if the career that you are considering is a good fit for you. An internship will also allow you to apply what you have learned in your course work to the "real world," allow you to develop your job search skills, and help you acquire a network of contacts.
There are a number of Internship opportunities you can pursue. Here are some links to opportunities in Wilmington, and beyond.
