Curricular Practical Training (CPT)
CPT involves cooperative education, internships, work/study arrangements, or other types of practicum provided through employers, in agreement with San Francisco Bay University. Students should review the CPT Process Guide for the latest information about these exciting opportunities.
Optional Practical Training (OPT) for International Students
With OPT, international students with F-1 status for two consecutive semesters who plan on working in the United States within their current field of study can receive work authorizations. Designated advisors at SFBU recommend students for OPT. However, the final approvals go through the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS). Students interested in the OPT process should log into their SFBU student portal to review the related OPT requirements.

They are part-time roles available as needed, and are open to qualified students. Students should go to the eCareer Center Job Board on their SFBU student portal account to find available positions.
