Winter Term 2011

OFFER AN OBERLIN STUDENT A WINTER TERM INTERNSHIP OR TEMPORARY HOUSING
Sponsored by the Office of Career Services

Please consider offering a Winter Term internship to a current Oberlin student. A Winter Term internship (during the month of January) presents an opportunity for you to share information about your profession, provide mentoring, and offer exposure to an career field of interest. In return you will have a motivated assistant to help out with substantive projects for a month!

Since many students complete Winter Term internships away from home, there is also a great need for temporary housing for students during the month of January. Housing opportunities with alumni have made it possible for many students to have access to internships that would not otherwise have been financially feasible. If you are interested in providing housing for an Oberlin student during Winter Term, please indicate this in your OBIEweb profile.

Liz Lierman, Associate Director in the Office of Career Services, and Jonas Wisser, Departmental Technician, will support you through the internship or housing process and will be available to answer any questions that you may have about drafting an internship description, developing intern roles and responsibilities, and selecting an intern. Liz and Jonas can be reached at: internships@oberlin.edu or (440) 775-8060.
