Internships

Your parents, teachers and counselors all say it because it’s true. Internship experiences set you apart. According to recent results of a National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) Job Outlook survey, “Internship experience is the most influential factor employers consider when deciding between two otherwise equally qualified job candidates.”

Belmont places a priority on providing you with such hands-on experiences in your chosen field. In fact, many of our majors require internships as part of your coursework, and with more than 53,000 businesses in our region, Nashville companies and organizations actively recruit Belmont students for intern positions. Plus, our Belmont USA programs offer students semester-long internship opportunities in cities across the country.

“During my time at Belmont I interned at many places around Nashville both in and out of the news and media industries. This set me up for success in my senior year when I interned with ABC News both in New York through the Belmont USA program and remotely. These internships have opened several doors for me postgraduation to full-time job offers with the top-rated news outlet!”
