Host an internship or practicum student

A student and employer are sharing information at a networking event.

Royal Roads programs frequently include an internship or practicum, giving students the chance to integrate classroom learning with work experience.

Employers can host our students for their internship or practicum. They'll do great work for you and help move projects forward while they're honing their skills.

To work with Royal Roads students on shorter-term projects, view our consulting and research opportunities.

Our students are ready to work

Royal Roads students can complete their internship at the end of their program. That means host employers will be mentoring students who are ready to enter the workforce.

Most internships are the final requirement before graduating. If the student is a good fit with your organization, you can hire them to continue their good work.

Ready to recruit?

If you'd like to recruit a Royal Roads student for your organization, you can submit your posting to our career board or contact our Career Learning and Development team.
