Internships

An internship is a temporary work experience designed to help a student learn by doing, usually in a field that complements the student's academic program. Internships are normally between three and six months in duration. Many academic programs at The New School strongly encourage or even require an internship experience, and students can often earn academic credit for an approved internship. Most internships are unpaid, but some are paid or include a stipend for expenses.
