Internships and Field Experiences

Experiential Learning and High-Impact Practices

Professional Preparation

Experiential learning opportunities like internships are crucial to the success of our students. Applying classroom knowledge in the field allows our students to truly understand their industries and be that much more prepared when they graduation.

Educators in Action

Make your mark on the world through one of Springfield College's education, physical education, health education, and teacher licensure programs. You’ll help shape the next generation by inspiring the minds of early childhood, elementary, and secondary education-aged students, including learners who have a diverse range of skills and personalities in the classroom and the gymnasium.

Partnership with Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival

Through the Springfield College partnership with Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival, dance students have year-round, complete access to live performances, the festival dance archives, lectures, workshops, interviews, and in-person networking with international artists in residence. Dance students also have the opportunity to attend summer workshops and/or obtain internships at Jacob’s Pillow for College credit.

"All of the integrated clinical experiences helped me learn how to build rapport with not only patients but patients’ family members, and other medical professionals. I think that is one of the most important aspects of my profession. All of the clubs and activities I participated in forced me to think outside the box and helped me grow my creative side." Erin Fitzgerald, ‘15, DPT‘17
