The Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University is one of the few art colleges nationally that requires an external learning/work experience. Internships are a critical part of the AIB experience for every student in every studio major. They plunge you into the working life of an artist. They help you figure out what you want (or don't want) to do with your art. They sharpen your technical skills into career tools. They give you a chance to develop your talents—and your portfolio. They help you get your foot in the door. Internships are usually done in the junior or senior year.
