Internship and Graduate School Opportunities

About 20-30 percent of our students become involved in internships either academically at APU or off campus with technical industries such as Orange County Road Department, JPL, or Northrop Grumman Industries. Because this is a preparatory program, virtually all pre-engineering graduates go on to graduate programs at schools like University of Southern California.
