Get a summer job with real meaning
While
lifeguarding or making fancy coffee drinks might be fun summer
jobs, they won't really help you get ready for your post-graduation
career. Instead, why not check into a summer internship that will
let you put your classroom knowledge into practice? Rose-Hulman
summer interns get paid really well, and employers trust them with
real projects. You aren't hired to grab doughnuts and coffee for
the people really doing the work!
How do you find an internship? Start with eRecruiting. Many companies use this service to post summer internships. You might also meet a potential internship employer at one of our three Career Fairs during the year. Your professors may know of internship possibilities, and you could also check with employers in your hometown (that could make your parents happy to have you back for the summer!).
There are two special internships funded by the Lilly Endowment: Entrepreneurial Internship Program (EIP) and Biomedical Engineering (BE) Internship Program. These internships take place in Indiana companies that have been approved for the program. Stop by the Career Services Office or contact Kathy Kassissieh to find out about opportunities in these two programs.
