Many Heller MBA students decide to pursue an optional part-time internship in their second fall. The MBA program identifies an array of internship opportunities for which students can apply, and then once they are matched, assigns an academic advisor who provides support and coaching along the way. Participating students receive a stipend (either from Heller or the sponsoring organization) as well as academic credit. For students this is a high-value way to burnish their credentials, explore potential career paths and get to know an organization they might be interested in joining upon graduation.
