Several local businesses contact the Engagement Coordinator to post internship opportunities. These opportunities often allow a student to experience an internship while still taking classes on campus.
The University Career Services Office has many resources to help you with your internship search. Click the links to learn more about:
Career and Internship Fairs: EIU's Career Services hosts two on-campus Career and Internship Fairs each year that are of interest to our students; one in the fall semester and one in the spring semester. A Career and Internship Fair is an opportunity for students to talk to representatives from companies that employ EIU graduates, to learn more about the employers, and to inquire about internship opportunities. Students who attend a Career and Internship Fair should dress professionally and take several copies of their resume. For dates, and tips on preparing for the event, visit the Career Services website.
Student Organizations: Involvement in Student Organizations allow students the opportunity to meet representatives of companies which recruit EIU students for internships through speaker meetings, social events, field trips and special events.
Tell your friends, family, professors, and others that you are looking for an internship!
