WHY INTERNOLOGY EXISTS

Internships deserve
more than good intentions.

They deserve a discipline.

When intentionally designed, internships create meaningful experiences for students, organizations, education, and communities.

THE GAP WE SAW

A Significant Opportunity to Do Internships Better.

Internships are everywhere. Yet too often, they are unstructured, inconsistent, and lack clear learning outcomes. Many organizations rely on experience, assumptions, or good intentions rather than research-informed design.

We saw an opportunity to bring a more intentional, evidence-based, and equitable approach to internships—one that benefits students, employers, and communities.

WE ASKED A DIFFERENT QUESTION

“Instead of asking, ‘How do we create more internships?’ we asked, ‘What makes an internship truly excellent?’”

That question became Internology.
