Would you like to earn between nine and twelve credits while gaining essential professional experience as part of a global team? The Global Enterprise Technology (GET) Immersion Internship experience is an innovative, extended 6-month work experience offered to students at the University of Delaware.
The program is open to students from any college or major who meet the GPA minimums, demonstrate a passion for learning new technology and participate in a rigorous, employer-led interview process.
“The GET Program allowed me to gain experience in the corporate world that I would not have received in the classroom,” said CJ Meyer, a student in the UD College of Engineering and former GET intern at KPMG. “The six month internship provided insight into the company culture and the type of work that I would be doing as a full-time employee.”
The benefits of the GET Internship include:
- Earn up to $1,000 per week and $20,000 over the life of the program
- The GET program has a job placement record of 100% since 2010
- Most positions are local so you can live on campus while working
- Learn to navigate complex work environments as you work side-by-side with corporate system engineers, IT personnel, product planners and consultants
“Not only was the program instrumental in achieving my ultimate goal, landing a full-time position with JPMorgan Chase right out of school, but the journey itself was fun, challenging and most importantly fulfilling,” said Steve Casini, a student in the Lerner College and former GET intern at JPMorgan Chase. “I would say one thing to those students currently considering applying for the GET program: do it!”
