At Menlo College, we believe career readiness starts in the classroom and comes to life through experience. That’s why all business majors are required to complete at least one internship before graduation, and psychology majors have the option to do so as an elective. Through our Academic Internship Program and the support of the Office of Internships & Career Services (ICS), students gain hands-on experience, grow their professional networks, and apply what they’ve learned in real-world settings. ICS supports students every step of the way with personalized advising, interactive workshops, and events like Career Connect Day, our annual gathering where students meet industry professionals, hear from alumni, explore different career paths, and gain insights that help shape their futures.
