Internships for Academic Credit at Curry College give students the opportunity to explore career paths, build professional skills, and earn course credit through real-world work experience. Many students complete more than one internship over the course of their time at Curry, gaining hands-on experience in fields connected to their interests and goals. Looking for a summer internship that isn't for academic credit? Visit our Experiential Learning page to learn about the CXL Summer Internship Program.

  • Cumulative minimum GPA of 2.50
  • Sophomore status (30+ credits)

To start the process, log in to the myCurry portal and visit the Internship Program tab under 'Career & Experiential Learning'.

Start by talking with your faculty internship supervisor. They can help you search for opportunities and will work with you to figure out whether a site qualifies for academic credit. Departments vary in the employer contacts and opportunities they have available.

Academic requirements for internship credit, such as assignments, check-ins, or evaluations, are set by your faculty internship supervisor and may vary by department. They're also your first point of contact if any issues come up during your internship.

If you're looking for more options, Career & Experiential Learning is also happy to help. We can work with you to identify potential opportunities, review your resume and application materials, and prepare you for interviews.

International students should review International Student Employment information or contact the International Student Services Office before beginning an internship.

The number of credits you earn depends on how many hours you work during your internship. Most internships are worth 3 credits and require approximately 110–120 hours of work over the course of the semester.

Employers decide whether an internship is paid or unpaid; Curry College does not require internship sites to pay student interns. Some unpaid internships must meet specific U.S. Department of Labor criteria depending on the type of organization.

During the academic year, internship credit is included as part of your regular tuition. Summer internship credit is billed at an additional per-credit rate.
