Internships

Internship opportunities for MIS majors are very popular, offering students a wealth of experience and knowledge. The Lewis University College of Business Internship Program allows students to earn academic credit toward a bachelor’s degree in MIS while gaining valuable experience through on-the-job training. Internships are offered throughout the fall, spring and summer sessions, and require a minimum of 200 hours to master skills discussed by the student and the internship advisor. Students can earn internship credit in one of three ways:

1. Apply for internships with companies currently offering internships to Lewis students.
   
   
2. Apply for an internship based on a current MIS-related position with an organization.
   
   
3. Students may also seek out internship opportunities on their own upon approval by the College of Business for a project relating to the student’s academic interest.

Internships must be approved by the Internship Coordinator, and meet all learning requirements. For more information, contact Dr. Laura Leli-Carmine at lelila@lewisu.edu or (815) 836-5458.
