Provide Internship Opportunities
Internships provide valuable career education, professional skill development, and much needed experience. In return, student interns bring to companies and other organizations innovative, creative and energetic assistance in meeting your organizational goals. Internship programs also allow employers to screen potential full-time hires. To learn more about hiring interns from Emory or if you need assistance in developing your internship program, please contact Don Cornwell at 404.727.6209.

Volunteer to be on a Career Panel
Career Services plans career panels throughout the academic year to educate students about a variety of potential career options. Topics have included: careers in writing, alternative health, green careers, non-profits and volunteering, sports industry, the music industry, politics, and many others. Students enjoy hearing about panelists' experiences first-hand. It is also a good opportunity for them to learn about the rewards and challenges of specific careers and how to get a foot in the door, and they also gain a potentially valuable contact in the industry. Please complete the online registration form or contact us at careercenter@emory.edu if you are interested in serving as a panel member.
