Welcome to the Internship Program of Cumberland University. Your time as an intern will be one of the most beneficial parts of your learning experience during college. While each academic department constructs its own learning goals and grading criteria for its interns, the management of the internship program is assumed by the Office of Career Services and Internships. The Internship Coordinator is here to assist you in any way possible to make your internship work for you, both as a career assessment tool, and as an important credential as you work toward your career goals.
