Overview
Details

Elevate your organization's creative and communicative initiatives by incorporating Bay Path University's senior students from the Arts, Humanities, and Communications disciplines into your team. Our project-based internship program is meticulously designed to harness our students' unique artistic talents, critical thinking skills, and communicative prowess, offering your organization a wealth of creativity and fresh, innovative perspectives.


The Arts, Humanities, and Communications group students are enrolled in diverse programs that emphasize creative expression, analytical thinking, and effective communication, key elements for any forward-thinking organization. The majors in this group include:


  • Communications
  • Creative Writing
  • English
  • Liberal Studies
  • Professional Writing
  • Writing and Literature


Throughout their internship, students will undertake one or more projects that align with your organizational objectives, infusing their creativity and expertise into every task. Their adaptability and proficiency in virtual communication tools ensure smooth collaboration and the seamless integration of their unique perspectives into your operational framework.


Bay Path University is committed to providing a transformative education to women from varied backgrounds, fostering their intellectual and creative growth. By presenting our senior students with this placement opportunity, your organization nurtures their artistic and communicative talents and benefits from their innovative approaches and fresh ideas. They are ready to commence at any time, and while we prefer paid experiences for our students, we also value the rich learning experience that unpaid opportunities can provide. Please specify the compensation structure (paid or unpaid) in your proposal.


Engage with Bay Path University's Arts, Humanities, and Communications students and witness a rejuvenation of creativity, strategic thinking, and communicative clarity within your organization.

Deliverables

Deliverables will vary depending on the scope of the internship. However, these deliverables must be discussed and agreed upon prior to the start of the internship. A primary objective of this internship placement is to have students integrated into the workplace's culture, which will enhance the networking capabilities of both the student, and the organization.


Bay Path University offers unique programming for women of all ages seeking bachelor's degrees. We are a relentless innovator and a force for equity, and our commitment to women’s success goes far beyond teaching a checklist of competencies. By partnering with Bay Path University, you'll be able to directly contribute to this growth and make a large impact.

Project Examples

Students can complete a substantial project for your organization over the placement period. We suggest providing a starting project, but as the placement goes on there may be other duties or projects the student is asked to complete as well. Providing a central project creates structure for the internship, and gives the student (and company) a tangible goal.


Additional company criteria

Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:

I understand that these experiences require ongoing support and mentorship to students throughout the internship. Students will interact virtually with their primary contact no less than once a week.

I understand that as part of the Bay Path University internship program, organizations will complete a Learning Contract prior to the start of the internship. This process will be assisted and facilitated by members of the BPU internship program.

Please provide a dedicated contact (name and email) who will act as the student's primary supervisor over the duration of the virtual placement. A secondary contact should be provided as a backup.
