Learning about Georgia Tech's internship programs for grad students. Evidently they do not affect time to graduation & in some circumstances improve time to completion #2018GCC
A mix of program visit to employers, employer visits to campus, and career fairs attracts and adds employers to their internship programs.
@GeorgiaTech uses a multipronged approach to grow interest in graduate co-op and internships.
Figuring out what those factors mean for you—and then finding a workplace that aligns—is a process of assessment, exploration, and reflection. #2018GCC #PhDchat x.com/grad_careers/s…
