As we continue to highlight Carroll College’s distinctive Sed Vitae curricular approach, a key component of this experience is its strong emphasis on internships. Internships provide students with invaluable opportunities to apply their classroom learning in real-world settings. Carroll's Career Services Office, led by Laurie Rodriguez '95, facilitates an average of 127 internships for academic credit each year.
These internships are more than just professional experiences—they are an integral part of the holistic education Sed Vitae promotes. Through partnerships with local businesses, nonprofits, healthcare providers, and government agencies, students gain practical skills and insights that align with their career goals while building a network of professional connections.
Whether in Helena or beyond, these hands-on experiences help students bridge the gap between academic theory and professional practice, enhancing their preparedness for life after graduation and deepening their sense of purpose in their chosen fields.
