Career Development Center

The Career Development Center helps students prepare for a meaningful life upon graduation.  We offer one-on-one advising along with innovative programs, outstanding internships, recruiting events, and extensive alumni mentoring and networking.  We work with you to uncover the skills, interests, and passions that will guide your career choices across a range of fields in academia, business, the arts, and community service.

Our job is to make sure our students are focused, prepared, and able to present themselves with excellence. And we expect you to treat your career search as you would any other course. The most successful people are those who really have a passion for their chosen field. We help you discover your passion and create a plan to turn that passion into a plan for the future.
In today’s recruiting environment, internships are invaluable. They are an excellent way not only to extend classroom learning and explore a career interest; they also offer an opportunity to gain professional experience and contacts that can help you stand out in a job search.

With Trinity’s distinctive academic internship program, each year, close to 300 students earn course credit by combining work experience with academic components under the direction of a Trinity professor.

Because internships are so valuable, we offer more than 200 established placements, and others can be arranged in virtually any professional area, including the arts, business and finance, government, engineering, health and social services, law, media, and education. See the list of more than 200 placements.

We can also help you obtain internships that are not for credit, but that provide similarly valuable learning and career experiences. Internships offer a number of career planning benefits, including building a network of contacts, securing references for future jobs, and developing job search skills such as résumé writing and interviewing.

For more information about academic internships, contact Linda Roy by e-mail at linda.roy@trincoll.edu or by phone at (860) 297-2082.  If you are interested in learning more about not-for-credit internships, please email career-services@trincoll.edu or call 860.297.2080.
