Many employers and graduate schools specifically consider internship experiences when they are selecting their employees or students to graduate programs. Moravian University is also placing greater emphasis on experiential learning as a way for students to put their liberal arts education into practice.
Internships often come with real-world hours but not real-world compensation. Stipends can help with that, and we have two options to support student interns:
- Alumni-sponsored internship stipends are made possible by the generous donations of alumni in an effort to assist current students as they secure internship opportunities.
- Community-based internship stipends, sponsored by local corporate partners, provide compensation to Moravian students who complete internships at non-profit organizations in the Lehigh Valley area.
Learning about new cultures and perspectives. Improving language skills. Developing confidence. Impressing employers. Seeing the world. These are just a few of the many benefits of studying abroad, and the Center for Global Education at Moravian University is developing new opportunities for students every year.
Moravian wants to provide education abroad experiences for as many of our students as possible, but some struggle with the cost. Gifts to establish scholarships, travel funds, and other support for students studying abroad will make this opportunity a reality for those who might not otherwise be able to afford it.
