With an investment in experiential learning, you help provide the opportunity for students to test out their skills beyond the classroom, through real-world experiences, which will give them the Wheaton Edge in a competitive global market.
Hear from a few students who were beneficiaries of Wheaton Internships during the 2019 academic year:
“My summer internship experience at IconTV allowed me to see ways in which my majors could be compatible outside of coursework. I assisted with medium scale event coordination, gained experience with multimedia production, social media marketing, and Adobe Creative application.”
"This fast-paced internship thrust me into the realm of professional theatre, taking all that I have learned at Wheaton and demonstrating the real-world application and use of it all."
"This summer, I fell even more in love with dentistry. I was given the opportunity to assist in 200 hours of extractions, fillings and exams. I also learned a lot about nonprofit organizations, and definitely see myself working with one in the near future."
"I have known for a while that I wanted to work with children who have experienced some sort of trauma. Most of my past experience has been related to clinical psychology; this allowed me to see that I actually prefer the forensics side."
"From this experience I learned that I want to continue to work with adolescents and to be a mentor to young adults."
