How Many Internships Should I Do ?

Question: How Many Internships Should I Do ?
Answer: There is no limit. Students may profit the most by experimenting with a combination of internships, either for or not-for-credit. For example, a student could do not-for-credit internships during the summer months (full-time if the internship is paid, or in conjunction with a part-time job), and one or two for-credit internships during the fall/spring semesters, depending on academic department or major.
