Did you secure an internship for the summer? Congratulations, your hard work has paid off! After you’ve told your friends and family the good news, be sure to share your information with the Career Enrichment Network. We are very interested to see when Liberal Arts students are successful in their internship searches. Reporting your internship only takes a few minutes. Here’s how to submit your internship information:
- Click on My Internship and Research Information (right side of the page under Shortcuts), and enter your information. This will add it to your Network Symplicity profile.
- Or send us an email at lanetwork@psu.edu and include the following details:
- Organization Name
- Organization Location (City/State)
- Position Title (i.e., Marketing Intern, Policy Intern, Undergraduate Research Assistant, etc.)
- Compensation (This information will be used for statistical purposes.)
- Start/End Dates (Tentative dates are fine.)
Reporting your internship is more important than you may think. We report annually on the number of students participating in internship and study abroad activities, so your internship is important to us. Tell us so you can be included with the other Penn Staters enriching their educational experience this summer. You may even be selected to share your internship experience with a special profile on our website!
As if those reasons weren’t enough, you can also apply for enrichment funding for your internship. Many internships for Liberal Arts majors are unpaid. The College has modest funds available from generous alumni to provide Liberal Arts majors support for their internship experiences. The application process is pretty simple and straightforward. Award amounts vary from a few hundred dollars to a couple thousand dollars depending on length of program, location costs, demonstrated need, etc. Don’t wait, report your internship today!
