Benefits of being a host site
As a host site, organizations have access to talented student interns, along with funding support from OSU Career Services to help cover intern wages. Hosting an intern not only enriches the student experience but also enhances the team by bringing new ideas and perspectives. Interns join your team for a full academic year (August to May), gaining hands-on learning that prepares them for their careers.
As a supervisor, you play a vital role in shaping their professional journey. InternOSU provides resources to help you create a meaningful, productive experience that benefits both you and your intern.

“We have never had a student intern before. InternOSU not only answered all our questions but provided us with fantastic support throughout the selection process. The program also contributes to a portion of the interns wages which opens up opportunities for those departments who may not have the funds to hire an intern on their own.”
