Nashville Interns:
Review Music Business partners by linking to the database through this
site.
If you want to intern with a company that is not in the database,
they must be approved first. Have them fill out the application at
www.ineedinterns.com.
Internship companies not already approved by MTSU
will need to be contacted by the internship coordinator before
actual internship can be secured.
Out-of-town interns:
Make an appointment with internship
coordinator to discuss your options. Be sure to begin your search process
several weeks, or even months, before pursuing an out-of-town internship.

an
interview. (If the

please let the internship coordinator
know.)

out the
