For students, theory and practice come together through numerous
experiential “active” learning opportunities offered
by the Labovitz School. One of the most popular forms of active
learning within the School is the LSBE Internship Program.
The LSBE Internship Program enables students to gain added knowledge
and skills through a structured work experience. Junior and Senior
Accounting and Business students learn about resume writing, interviewing
techniques, and job search strategies as they obtain an internship
either through a coordinated on-campus recruiting process or direct
placement.
The Objectives of the LSBE Internship Program are to:
• Enable students to learn more about the occupation of
their choice through work experience.
•
Assist students in recognizing the need for classroom instruction
as it relates to their career goals.
•
Allow students to work in actual job situations that cannot be
duplicated in the classroom.
•
Allow students the opportunity to develop a sense of responsibility
required in the business world.
•
Help students learn the value of personal qualities such as professional
appearance, courtesy, integrity, diversity and concern for others
with whom they are working.
•
Familiarize students with experiences related to the process of
seeking employment.
•
Provide the college with valuable information about industry, establish
professional contacts, and obtain advice from business leaders
concerning curriculum planning, student recruitment, and graduate
placement.
