Prospective Students

ITAP recruits first-year DePauw students with a passion for technology but minimal training and mentors them over the course of their four years of college.
Students Working in Group

  • Year 1 (Apprentice): ITAP students, in cohorts of five or six, participate in four six-week training rotations with key campus IT groups.  This first year exposes them to the entire gamut of IT services, including digital video/audio production, Web design, information analysis, desktop and network hardware, and client support.
  • Year 2 (Apprentice): Students participate as associates in semester – or year – long on-campus internships, working closely with faculty and IT professionals.  At the end of their apprenticeship year, students are presented with an authentic job search experience.
  • Year 3 (Advanced Apprentice): During their third year, students have the option of a semester-long technology internship with an off-campus employer.  Personal interactions with clients help them develop lifelong professional behaviors, making them more marketable for future careers.
  • Year 4 (Senior Mentor): Senior students work on the most important and sophisticated technology projects on campus, while serving as mentors to younger ITAP associates and leaders of ITAP.
