I'm a current student in Mays Business School double majoring in Accounting and Management Information Systems (MIS).
I'm on the AggieLaunch site through the Career Center, im just wondering does anybody have any other ideas/contacts for an internship this summer?

What kind of internship are you looking for?

Career Fair, but that ship already sailed I believe.

The career center is how I found most of my internships and ultimately one led to a fulltime job. I also got almost all of my full time interviews there as well. Great resource which I think is vastly underutilized by many students.

I was MIS as well.

The other ways I got interviews were either friends who called me to inteview or pursuing companies that I was interested in. If you know someone on the inside, they can direct you to the right people which helps alot more than just being some unique id from a website.

thanks, and yes i did the career fair as well and have at least two interviews because of it

aggie0607, im looking for either an accounting or mis internship (or some combination) preference is accounting

what kind of accounting?

audit, tax, forensic litigation?

.

audit or forensic accounting seem to interest me the most. i've taken fraud examination, audit, and internal audit classes, and i enjoyed all of those classes. im trying to get an internship for the summer. i would do an mis internship as well. My preference is houston.

Just curious? How come you are not in the PPA program?

i came in with so many hours from ap tests, which allowed me to get way over my head my freshman year. thus resulting in a not so stellar GPR. I've been working to fix that ever since, but i've done some dumb stuff in class scheduling since im trying to graduate in 4 years with 150 hours.

Have you taken 327? If so, what did you end up making?

yes, i made a c (i took 327 and finc 341 in the same semester which was a big mistake)

additionally i have taken
405 -A
408 (internal audit) B
taking 407 and 410 (fraud exam)

what say you aggie0607

It is tough getting in not being in PPA.

IT is even tougher trying to get it with a C in acct 327.

What is your overall GPA?

yes, i understand the first two points, hence this entire thread. 2.65 overall

hey speaking of all of this in the future i will be going to sam houston and will I be able to go to the career fair at a&m even though I go to sam? I am going for a business admin. & management degree. Will i also be able to use the AggieLaunch career center as well to look for jobs or is there some where else to go since i will be going to sam?
