Learning Labs

Welcome to the EODA Internship Program

Our Program

Since its inception in 2001, the Learning Labs Internship Program has grown to offer over 100 internships to student interns in the fields of Human Resources. This program provides opportunities for students to work and learn from staff and administrators in the Human Resource Services areas of the Administrative Affairs Division. Employee & Organizational Development & Advancement (EODA) includes Customer Service Center (CSC), Payroll and Benefits Services, Employment Services, Compensation and Classification, and Employee/Labor Relations. We currently offer one type of internship: Human Resources.

The Human Resources internship fulfills the requirements for Management and Human Resources (MHR) students. Through hands-on experiences, students have the opportunity to strengthen their knowledge, skills and abilities and gain work experience, while earning academic credit. Experiential learning can increase a student’s understanding of their chosen field and enhance the academic experience by providing new perspectives. Interns work under close observation of Human Resource staff and are subject to course and grading requirements of the supervising faculty/staff member.
