Student interns

The Office of Information Security also has student workers as seen here at the Student Worker Appreciation Bash. Our interns follow one of two focuses, or offices, in OIS: (1) information security and (2) digital accessibility. Students gain on-the-job experience and learn about trending compliance topics from subject matter experts. This hands-on work and one-on-one engagement with their supervisors provides them with professional development and skill sets that will help them in the workforce.
