Internships in this area are often quite interesting and may include a variety of responsibilities. As more and more business is facilitated through websites most businesses now need to ensure their online applications function at an optimal level. An internship will allow you to acquire the skills and gain valuable working knowledge in the functions and applications that assist this process technically.
You may well have assignments and tasks in a wide variety of emerging web fields and you will be dealing with innovative design on new websites constantly trying to improve the user experience.
Some of the key areas you will need to already understand are having a working knowledge of web development, web design and scripting languages (e.g.: PHP, ASP, CMS and JavaScript), a working knowledge of XML integration, understand what database design entails (use of SQL, MySQL, and MS Access) understand something about database design and structure, understand W3C validation and why its important, an ability to work as part of a team and at least a basic understanding of related e-commerce principles. Doing an IT internship will therefore mean you’ll gain useful working experience in the above areas and will allow you to build your CV so that you can really help your future career opportunities.
