Internships are like apprenticeships since they are temporary positions that emphasize on-the-job training. Many firms will offer competitive pay and government agencies will typically give stipends. Completing a successful engineering internship with any firm can lead to a job offer from that firm in addition to improving skills and knowledge.
Many firms have websites that describe their intern programs and there are websites that list available internships. Career fairs held at colleges are also sources of information about engineering internships.
