Work, Intern, Volunteer

At NYIT, student learning goes beyond the classroom. Our programs and resources are designed to help students develop technical skills in their field and transferable skills such as time management, business communications, and customer service.

Experiential education is a work or volunteer experience over a semester where students increase knowledge, develop skills, clarify values and prepare for careers and citizenship. It is a partnership between the student, NYIT, and the community organization. Get practical experience through:

• Internship Certificate Program
• Service-learning
• Study Abroad
• Working on-campus

Experiential learning happens from personal experience and reflection on everyday activities. In short, it is self-teaching and less structured than experiential education programs. It includes externships, job shadowing, and volunteering. Get involved with the:

• Community Service Center
• Alumni Mentor Program
• Alternative Break Program
