INTERNSHIPS at EAST BAY

Internships

Cal State East Bay encourages all students to have at least one internship before graduation. Internships may be paid or unpaid, taken for academic credit or not, and typically provide a student with a real-life work experience related to their future career or interests. Internships are structured learning opportunities and can occur during the summer or academic year. 

Meeting with a member of the AACE career team and utilizing our Career Services page can help you prepare for internships. Opportunities are posted on Handshake, our job and internship platform.
