Internships

The Office of Career Programs & Employer Relations can help undergraduate and graduate students find internships. We recommend all students complete at least one internship during their time at Dominican, as internships are a great way to gain experience and learn more about your future career goals. Our Career Mentors (EIRs) are great resources to help in your internship search. Please make an appointment with them directly in Handshake.

Once you have acquired an internship, please schedule an appointment with a career development staff member in handshake.
