Internships
We help our students build the bridge from college to career.
All MMB students are required to complete a 160-hour (minimum) internship in the summer between their first and second years. Students secure their own internships, which are hosted by an off-campus company to provide students with relevant industry experiences. Students must submit an internship portfolio and give an oral presentation in the fall semester after the internship.
Past internships have included lab work, report writing, technology assessments, market analysis, database management, and fermentation analysis.
Internship Requirements
- Hosted by an off-campus (unless otherwise approved) industry company
- Be a new experience (i.e., internship responsibilities must differ from those students had in prior industry-related experiences)
- Relate to the student’s academic program and career interests
- Students must submit an internship portfolio that represents the internship experience. Materials used to secure the internship, a written report, and evidence of networking activities must all be included in the internship portfolio.
Dedicated to Your Success
Our staff is here to help you through the internship process, including resume writing, developing interview skills, and networking.
