Internships are highly recommended, and allow you to apply concepts and practices learned in coursework as you assist in professional entry-level work under the formal guidance from a qualified supervisor/mentor. You may take part in a variety of projects including but not limited to:

  • Redesign of a website
  • Taxonomy construction
  • Information security analysis
  • Database modeling
  • Information retrieval system design
  • Requirements analysis for large information projects

There are three primary criteria that a setting or experience must meet in order to qualify for academic credit as an internship in the MSIM program:

  • The internship site/experience must be approved by the MSIM academic advisor.
  • Your work/projects/tasks must be primarily of a professional or beginning professional nature.
  • The internship must constitute a learning experience for that relates to the academic scope of the MSIM program.
  • View a list of past internship sites.
