Real-World Experience Starts Here
At Cedarville University's Robert W. Plaster School of Business, we believe some of the best learning happens outside the classroom. That’s why we’ve built a robust internship program designed to give you meaningful, hands-on experience in real business environments — before you even graduate.
Why Intern?
Internships are more than résumé boosters. They're your opportunity to:
- Ï㽶ֱ²¥ what you’ve learned in class to real-world challenges
- Gain clarity about your career path and calling
- Build a professional network that opens doors
- Connect with mentors who model Christ-centered leadership
- Get a head start with potential employers
