Internships Accepted for Credit
The Newhouse Career Development Center (CDC) as well as the Syracuse University Career Services Office play a role in identifying internship sites. Faculty and alumni also provide leads for internships sites, both credit and non-credit bearing. Receiving credit is often a criterion of the company, though students will periodically elect to receive optional credit. Once a student secures an internship for credit, s/he must secure a Newhouse faculty sponsor who will supervise the experience.
