Internships

The objective of the CIS & MS internship Program is to foster students' experiential learning through their real business experiences in CIS & MS related fields. All students in the Computer Information Systems program are highly encouraged to obtain relevant work experience in the information technology field before graduation. In most cases, CIS students should plan to obtain a summer internship between their junior and senior years.

Many CIS student internships are obtained through James Madison University's on-campus recruiting office. In order to particpate in the on-campus interviewing process, students must sign up to use JMU's MadisonTRAK

In addition, students often gain relevant work experience through JMU's Community Service Learning. CSL often has opportunities for unpaid/paid IT projects.

Local internships in the Harrisonburg, Virginia region can often be found on the Shenandoah Valley Technology Council's web site.
