Employers are looking for graduates with experience. Experience can range from field experiences for credit, to internships (paid or unpaid), to professional opportunities during the school year or over the summer. This experience helps employers evaluate how you’ve taken the technical competencies and information skills you’ve learned in your program and applied them in a real world setting.
