Where the Interns Are… (UPDATED!)

In addition to adding more student internship spotlights below, we recently asked Amine Qourzal with Baylor’s Career Center what internships mean for our Baylor MBA students, both during and after their time in the program.

“At Baylor MBA, we value the experience our students gain from internships. That’s why we encourage all our students to seek out a high quality internship during their time with us. As an intern, you will encounter firsthand the varied roles people play within different organizations and industries. It provides you the hands-on training of a full time job and the ability to explore different elements of a company to see where you best fit in.  An internship is the perfect way to gain valuable experience while discovering what you would enjoy as a career. Best of all, an internship gives you an advantage in networking and building on the skills you learn during your MBA program. Please let the Career Center know how we can help you locate your next internship!”
