Here’s how participation in supervised virtual internship experiences through the University of Virginia Internship Placement Program, which reflect not just student willingness but also employer buy-in, has grown since the pandemic started: In summer 2020, the program had 60 remote interns. In fall 2020, that number increased to 83. In spring 2021, the number reached 148. Rebecca H. Coulter, associate director of the program at the UVA Career Center, says that “a network of support is vital for students in a virtual internship.”
