For Employers
For Merrick Students
The Merrick School of Business internship program is
designed to augment classroom theory and to offer students
opportunities to participate in carefully monitored, field-based
learning experiences in organizations. The internship experience
allows students to apply their education, gain experience in a
particular field, and prepare for fulfilling careers.
Internships are typically part-time positions
where students work at least 120 hours over the course of the
semester. As an intern, students gain valuable
professional experience, have the opportunity to earn academic
credit, and can even get paid. An internship should be related to
students' academic and/or career interests. Many students
consider internships as early as their sophomore year. This is also
a great way for an organization to recruit entry-level talent.
Note: If you are seeking a noncredit internship—the UB Career Center is an excellence resource.
