Are you passionate about helping students connect classroom learning to real-world experience? Is internships, co-ops, and experiential learning part of your role?

Monarch Internship and Co-Op invite you to join the Excellence in Internships and Co-Op Commission — a collaborative group of faculty and staff who support ODU students through internship advising and work-based learning engagement.

What does the Commission do?

·         Share updates on internships, co-ops, and employer partnerships

·         Collaborate and exchange best practices for advancing work-based learning initiatives

·         Serve as a vital resource for linking stakeholders

Why join?

·         Connect with colleagues across campus

·         Stay in the loop on opportunities that benefit your students

·         Contribute your voice and expertise to shaping work-based learning 

The Commission meets virtually on the third Thursday of each month from 2:30–3:30 p.m. to share updates, collaborate, and support work-based learning initiatives. For those unable to attend, meeting recordings and materials are shared via email.

If you’re interested in joining—or would like to learn more—we’d love to hear from you!  Contact, K. Barnes, kibarnes@odu.edu.
