County Executive's Internship Program
Anne Arundel County's Internship Program is designed to identify and develop the future talents of students throughout Anne Arundel County. The internships are an extension of academic instruction and provide the opportunity to turn classroom instruction into practical application in the workplace.
Interns draw upon the knowledge and skills gained through their coursework in order to assist in performing the principal assignments and/or projects of the internship. In order to encourage Anne Arundel County Interns to perform meaningful work, objectives are set at departmental level and the progress of the Internship is regularly evaluated against these objectives.
Anne Arundel County's Internship Program provides students with an opportunity to have exposure to the real world of business and public administration, to develop contacts and to gain experience that may give direction to their professional life.
