Services for CSUF Students

There is no better time than your college years to explore the wide range of professional and community experiences available to you. By completing an academic internship or service-learning experience in a business, government, or a nonprofit organization, you gain working skills, build a network of professional contacts, and test classroom theories in a real world setting. The Center for Internships & Community Engagement and CSUF's academic internship and service-learning courses offer you the opportunity to formally integrate academic studies with practical work experience prior to completing your degree.

Some of our services to you include:

• Provide orientations on academic internship and service-learning opportunities, departmental guidelines, and the registration process.
• Develop sites and post academic internships and service-learning positions that offer appropriate learning experiences, a professional environment, academic relevance, and appropriate supervision.
• Ensure that all academic internship and service-learning opportunities conform to established risk management guidelines for meaningful, high quality, and safe experiences.
