Career Services & Internships

Castleton University leads the way in hands-on learning through our internships, practicums, and cooperative-education partnerships. Our signature combination of a strong career-focused, liberal arts education, and hands-on experience gets results. That's why Castleton is third in the nation for job placement among public colleges.

Castleton Internships in Action

Beyond Castleton

Brooke Rubright, REDC

“At Castleton, I feel as though I have the full support of each professor I have met. There is constantly someone looking out for you and searching for available opportunities to help you succeed."

Beyond Castleton

Dara Davison, Nassau County Department of Public Works

"I got to experience what it was like to do the fieldwork and desk work they were doing, so I could really see what it was like doing the job.”

Beyond Castleton

Josh Sickles, Vermont State Police

"The most educational part of the internship for me was the hours I spent in a ride-along scene with multiple Troopers. This provided insight into what types of events I would be doing if this was the career path I chose."
