What is the difference between capstone/intern program?

The Fulton County IT Capstone program is a collaborative-partnership program offered through participating universities that places students into hands-on practical professional experiences within their field of study prior to graduation.

Internship are compensation-based positions offered through Fulton County for current and graduating students to work and learn within Fulton County IT Departments.

A major difference is Capstone programs are unpaid (and offered through universities) and Internship programs are paid positions (offered through Fulton County).

HOW DO I COLLABORATE (as a University) Institution?

Interested Universities/Institutions can reach out to through the University/Institution contact form on the FCIT COE Webpage page to inquire on how to participate or request more information.

What are the minimum qualifications?

Internship minimum qualifications are to current or graduating students who have a demonstrated ability and want to thrive in an excellent learning professional environment. Standard employment verification including background checks can apply.

Capstone Programs require students enrolling in the Capstone program offered through their university institution.
