Welcome to the School of Business Internship Program, Employers

Partner with the School of Business credit-bearing internship program at Farmingdale State College

A selective, competitive program for top-tier business students.

What is a credit-bearing internship?

A credit-bearing internship is more than just a job; it's a valuable employment experience. Held in a professional setting, students are able to explore and learn about their specific field of study. While students intern, they are also enrolled in an internship class, where they learn to support a company's mission and goals and to develop professionally. Students will also complete assignments based on their experiences throughout the semester to earn credit, while employers are expected to provide a hands-on learning experience.
