University of Montana School of Business Administration Internship Program - PROGRAM OVERVIEW
| June 17, 2008 |  View for printing |
The focus of the program is to provide students with meaningful work experience and to provide employers with competent people who add value to a business.
The students apply the theory they have learned in the classroom. During their experience students develop an awareness, knowledge and development of the professional and interpersonal skills and behavior needed to be effective in the workplace. They also provide the businesses with enthusiasm, excitement and a strong work ethic while they perform the many tasks that the employer needs accomplished. Employers have an opportunity to see potential future employees in the work setting and many have indicated on surveys that they are very pleased with students' work and hope they will join the company after graduation.
Our Internship Program is intended to assist students in obtaining practical business experience that will complement and enhance the traditional educational process. The experience should aid the student in the exploration of potential career opportunities and assist in clarifying his/her personal, educational, and career goals. Rob Van Driest is the Internship Director. He is assisted by Larae Hackney who coordinates the program and provides technical support.
Internship Services is the campus organizer that administers the university wide internship program. Dr. Terry Berkhouse and his staff of job developers work with both students and businesses to develop and provide internships for all university students. This office is the interface between employers and the university.
