Implement new internship opportunities within ETS for UVM students. Work with academic units to provide credit hours for work performed in internship with the hopes to retain graduating students as full-time employees.

Internship opportunities benefit students by providing an entry level foothold into the industry, giving them real experience in the field, and helping them make connections to support their future careers. These resources are especially valuable for populations that are underrepresented and often systemically overlooked in the fields ETS includes. Expanding these opportunities within ETS would also allow for a pipeline of internal recruiting alongside targeted advertising of student positions to increase the diversity of new staff applicants and hires.
