Undergraduate Internship

SMU strongly believes in exposing our students to the dynamic world of business through internship. Through a total immersion in a real business environment, internship is an excellent opportunity for SMU students to put into practice what they have learnt, explore career possibilities, stretch themselves beyond their current limits and realise their full potential.

SMU undergraduates undertake a minimum of 10 weeks of internship with a business organisation, typically during the vacation periods from mid April to mid August and in December each year. Besides giving students real life work and professional experience, the internship programme also provides sponsoring organisations with:

  • Access to an excellent source of highly-motivated career minded individuals
  • Project help that may be shelved due to manpower and cost constraints
  • A cost effective recruitment process for potential employees
  • A shorter learning curve and increased productivity   for those interns that become full time employees with their internship sponsor

For SIS students, please visit OASIS>SIS Resources, for details and other materials on SIS Internship.

Our Partners

We appreciate the partnerships with the various organisations that are already participating in our internship programme. The companies listed here have taken in interns from the School of Information Systems since 2003. We look forward to a continued partnership and collaboration with these organisations.

We also welcome more organisations to participate in the SIS internship programme. Please visit SMU's Office of Career Services or contact them at careers@smu.edu.sg to find out more about establishing internships with us. SMU's Office of Career Services would be most happy to discuss with you on how to recruit interns and full-time employees from all parts of SMU, including School of Information Systems.
