internships for graphic design students

LGD Design & Illustration

If you’re looking to get experience working with both small and large businesses and organizations, LGD Design & Illustration might be a good fit. They need a freelance graphic designer to help with their client services.

They’ve worked with clients like United Way of Massachusetts Bay, the Boston Athletic Association (BAA), The Boston Foundation, Tufts University School of Medicine and many more.

They are located in Boston, MA but they’ll consider applicants from all over the country. They were founded by two partners in 2005 and have been in business ever since!

Target

Target is a large department store that sells everything from clothing to furniture and home goods. As such, Target has many marketing campaigns that you can learn from. The most famous one is their “Target” ads featuring the orange bullseye with various things around it (like an apple or a computer mouse). These ads are meant to target specific groups of people (like women in their 20s) who are likely to want to shop at Target and use the products featured in the ad. This is good practice for graphic designers because it teaches them how to create attractive images that appeal to certain audiences. In addition, Target has hundreds of stores across the United States, so if you’re looking for an internship opportunity near where you live or go to school then this could be perfect for you!

Pearson

If you’re looking for an internship that will expose you to the real world of graphic design, Pearson has one of the best programs available. Their summer interns work in teams on real-world projects and present their work at the end of the program. In addition to this, they have a chance to attend professional development sessions at Pearson headquarters in Boston and network with fellow designers from other companies throughout their internship.

This is an internship that pays well—about $20/hour—and offers plenty of flexibility so that you can keep up with your schoolwork while working here.

They offer internships for graphic designers and art directors, in which you can gain experience with creating print ads, web sites, and social media campaigns.

Interns are encouraged to think outside of the box when it comes to coming up with ideas while also taking direction from senior members of the team—a dynamic that gives them experience working on many different types of projects under various circumstances.
