MSPPM Internship Requirement

As an MSPPM student enrolled in the two-year track option, you must complete an internship in the summer between your first and second year.

  • Gain experience in your chosen field.
  • Decide, based on experience, whether a particular type of job really fits your career goals.
  • Make important professional contacts.
