The GID Internship Program brings students into a professional environment where they receive training in design thinking and participatory design methodologies to assist in workshops and interdisciplinary projects. Community connections and portfolios provide interns with a valuable lead into careers in design, user research, and related areas. Interns may earn a Digital Badge in design thinking.

Microcredentials

Digital Badges Upon Completion

The IIGE offers microcredentials in two high value programs that connect student to careers in innovation and design, public service, and civic engagement. Microcredentials are shorter-term, specialized learning opportunities that give students the skills and connections they need to graduate to careers in their chosen field of study. Students earn digital badges that effectively convey the learning undertaken. The IIGE's microcredentials are awarded by a faculty executive committee of its representative Faculty Council.
