Why an internship?
An internship can help you reevaluate your life goals and connect your Hamline experience with the work-day world.
"What do I want to do
with my life now? How do I reevaluate my life goals, change my career or
connect my experience in the GLS program with the work day world?"
If these questions come to mind, then the Hamline GLS Internship Program may be for you.
New internship opportunities are being sought in all areas of GLS academic concentration, or you can think about creating your own internship.
What next?
The GLS Internship Coordinator can work with you to create the experience you want. Contact Anna Martignacco-Roberts.
