Internships provide our students an opportunity to explore the practical aspects of their classroom experience as well as giving them an advantage when it comes time to look for employment after graduation.

• Recent internship projects
• Internship opportunities with industry and municipalities
• Internship opportunities at Texas A&M University

Once an internship project is identified and approved (Form 484), students will register for the internship course (BESC 484) and will receive 3 hours credit towards their degree plan. At the completion of the internship, students will prepare a report on their internship following departmental guidelines
