Register Your Internship
BWI Group offers hands-on experience on meaningful projects to Wright State interns.
Congratulations on being offered an internship!
Please log in and complete the information regarding your internship.
There are three options you can choose from when registering your internship. All majors can count as a Tech-Elective with the exception of CS/CEG. If you are seeking a credit option, please speak with your academic advisor.
The three options are below:
- Count your internship toward one technical elective. To qualify one must have completed all of their sophomore level courses, typically be working 30 hours/week, and have prior approval from their academic department. If you are interested in this option, please speak with your academic advisor to see if you qualify.
- Your internship can count as a general elective if you still need general electives. You would pay for this by credit hour. Check with your academic advisor or on your DAR to see if you still need general electives.
- If you do not need technical/general electives you can also register your internship for 0 credit hours, $0. This is a good way to have an official record of your internship and have it formally documented on your transcript. For full time internships, this option will also maintain your student status even if you are working off campus and not taking any other classes.
Once registered for any of the aforementioned options, one will be required to complete assignments in pilot related to their internship. These course requirements will take no more that an hour or two over the course of the semester.
Guidelines for Internships
To register with the College of Engineering and Computer Science for the engineering internship program, students should be a sophomore level or above and:

CPT Guidelines
Curricular Practical Training (CPT) is a program provided by the US Government that allows F1 visa students the opportunity to work off campus in the field of their study during their program as an integral part of their education. Both credit and non-credit bearing positions are eligible.
The College of Engineering and Computer Science sponsors both part time and full time CPT authorization for full time students to encourage experiential learning within students’ areas of expertise as practical supplementation to their primary goal of achieving a degree.
