Program Description
Through the Rutgers Master of Business and Science (MBS) Externship Exchange program, students are matched to corporate/ industry small projects in teams ranging from two to nine students. Taking a project from start to finish, teams are directed by both an MBS academic advisor and a mentor from the organization to which they have been assigned. This unique opportunity allows students to gain real, hands-on work experience at some of the world’s leading corporations while also receiving specialized instruction on topics including leadership, teamwork, problem-solving, and effective presentations. Intensive professional development workshops are a hallmark of our program. The Externship Exchange can be a gateway to the job of your dreams.
