Academic Internship Opportunities
Algoma University’s Academic Internship courses are designed to help students connect their academic studies to relevant work experience.
Research shows that students are better equipped for future employment when their academic program is combined with work-integrated learning. By providing students with an opportunity to apply their academic knowledge and critical thinking skills in work environments, Internships, like Coop, are another great way for students to gain experience related to their degree program. The internship option is ideal for students who are interested in gaining work experience but are unable to commit to the three full semesters of placement required for the co-operative education program.
