Learning, Leadership, Faith and Service

Dakota Wesleyan recognizes the rich learning experiences that come from internships. For employers, internships have become an important part of the recruitment process. For students, internships are an incredible learning opportunity to apply the concepts learned in the classroom to real-world work experiences. For colleges, internships are a powerful way to help structure learning beyond the classroom and to help students make the necessary connections to the world of work.

Internship opportunities abound in Dakota Wesleyan University’s many programs. Our students have done internships with:

• the U. S. Department of Justice, the FBI and the Internal Revenue Service in Washington, DC.;
• countless faith-based non-profit organizations;
• local hospitals and schools;
• corporate fitness and sports centers across the country;
• state and local agencies; and
• various environmental research organizations.

Students have even studied coral in the Caribbean and had the opportunity to do ground-breaking research in molecular biology.

DWU will help connect students to these experiential opportunities … and to the future!

The office of internships is located in the Kelley Center on second floor of Smith Hall. Stop in and visit or call 605-995-2902 with any questions.
