Seeking a Student Intern for Your Organization? 
Consider working with a Regis student! At Regis, we define an internship as a high-impact, experiential learning opportunity for students. Community partners are an integral part of a successful internship — not only are students developing skills to become career-ready, but employers are building their organization’s capacity as well. Regis students look for internships with established organizations (as evidenced by physical location, website, history of offering paid employment, listed telephone number, tax ID number, and more) and clear job descriptions and duties. And, of course, paid internships always attract more applicants! 

An internship with a Regis student must meet the following criteria: 

  • Be a professional opportunity to apply classroom learning to real-world issues
  • Have a defined beginning and end, and a full job description
  • Have clearly defined learning objectives for the student
  • Be overseen by a supervisor with expertise related to the internship area who will provide regular feedback and mentoring 

For more information about The Academic Internship Program at Regis University, please visit our website or email rcinterns@regis.edu.
