How to Apply for an On-Campus Intern

ITAP Associates complete on-campus internships during their sophomore, junior, and senior years at DePauw. ITAP Associates work 8-10 hours per week, performing techonology-related tasks for faculty and staff members around campus. Each fall, ITAP staff members send out a request for proposals to faculty and staff members. Approved internships are compiled and placed in a classified advertisement document which is distributed to all ITAP associates. ITAP students then have the opportunity to interview for specific internships that match their interests and abilities.

Applications from DePauw faculty and staff members for hosting ITAP Interns are accepted annually in the spring semester to propose positions for the following academic year.
