Student Internships

Internship Sites

The Center for Prairie Studies funds three student internships every summer. In addition, it sponsors the CSA/GALFA internship though funding comes from the College's Career Development Office. The Center recommends any of the following institutions as internship sites, though students are encouraged to seek out others. In some cases, these institutions have additional procedures for doing an internship beyond what the Career Development Office requires.
