Internships 

 
Internships​ often bring to mind TV and movie characters who fetch coffee 
and make copies. But internships are not about being the office errand 
runner. Internships offer unique exposure and insight into the industry and 
work environment, give you a hands-on experience in your field of study. It 
gives you the opportunity to gain practical skills, strengthen your CV, and 
make you more employable. 
 
Who is it for?  
Interns are usually college or graduate students. While interns are usually 
older students, like juniors or seniors, freshman and sophomores can seek 
out internships as well. Having several internships while in college can be 
very impressive to potential employers. 
 
What Do You Do? 
The daily tasks of an intern can vary widely, even within the same industry. 
It is largely dependent on your professors /mentors and the labs you get an 
opportunity to work in. In some internships, you may do mainly mechanical 
work, run errands or do repetitive experiments. But in others, you will be 
an important part of team, making substantial contributions learn crucial 
lab techniques useful in research as well as industry which help in your 
personal and professional growth.  
 
What’s in it for you? 
Internships offer students a hands-on opportunity to work in their desired 
field. They learn how their course of study applies to the real world and 
build valuable experience that makes them stronger candidates for jobs 
after graduation. 
Internships can change your career trajectory. An internship can be an 
excellent way to "try out" a certain career. For instance, you may think you 
want a fast-paced job in advertising after college, but after an internship, 
you may find that it's not for you; that's valuable insight that will help you 
choose your career path. You learn the art of building relationships which is 
one of the most important soft skills and will be extremely useful while 
leading a group or even being part of the team. 
 
Self-designing an internship can give you the opportunity to acquire the 
necessary skills, experience and tools that you require in your work. In 
some colleges, internships also count towards course credit. This is 
dependent on your individual school's requirements, but usually a 
three-month long internship counts as a full course credit. And now that 
you know so many exist, the sky is the limit. Embrace the word “internship” 
each time you hear it—and you will hear it a lot. As you’ve seen in the 
examples above, it’s often the bridge to a bright future. 
 

 
 
Apart from the conventional informal way of contacting 
researchers and obtaining research internships directly, 
here is a list of research fellowships that you could 
apply for - most of which are fully funded.
