This program is an opportunity for students with a serious interest in scholarly publishing to gain a worthwhile educational experience in scholarly publishing.  Interns will have the opportunity to observe and ask questions about the internal operations of the Press.  The value of this internship is to both gain experience in a professional publishing work environment and to show a potential employer your skills and abilities as they relate to publishing.
