What is the difference between a part-time job and an internship?
The main difference is that an internship is set in a learning environment, has a beginning and end date, it’s in the student’s major and the work is done for academic credit. Internship positions are reserved for students and can be paid or unpaid. While a part-time job can be in the student’s field of study, it’s mainly done for pay. If you see a job announcement that is in related to your major, consider applying to your academic department to receive credit.
