Internships & Experience

Internships & Experience

Internships are incredibly important in helping you gain real world experience in your field, and making you a more competitive applicant when you go to apply for full time employment post-graduation. Statistics show that students who complete at least one internship before graduation are more likely to get hired then those who do not.

Liberty University seeks to prepare all graduates with real world experience through internships and opportunities for career exploration.

Liberty University Fellowship Programs

The fellowship programs are based in Washington D.C. and New York City. Students apply through the Career Center for a given semester, or summer term and, if selected will gain professional development and networking skills, and a competitive internship. Beyond their internship, students have the opportunity to live and work in one of the nation’s two most competitive economic markets.
