Experiential Education & Career Management
Previous Course Number: WORK 120

The Industry Exploration Internship: Retail is an opportunity for students to develop a deeper understanding of the fashion industry through an applied learning experience in a retail setting. The primary focus of this internship is to provide students the opportunity to see how the fashion industry works at the point where the brand meets the customer. Students will be required to complete a total of 130 hours at the internship site and should therefore expect to dedicate approximately 10-15 hours per week to this internship. The classroom component of this course consists of reflective sessions to discuss internship progress. At the end of their internship, students will participate in an exit interview process and submit a written summary of their experience outlining how they gained deeper insight into the fashion industry.
