Information Technology Associates Program

DePauw University’s Information Technology Associates Program (ITAP) is a selective, four-year honors program that provides special opportunities for students to develop advanced skills in a wide range of information technologies.

ITAP’s objective is to prepare students – regardless of their majors or career aspirations – for the team-based work environments that await them after graduation, where technical fluency, leadership abilities and interpersonal skills are most important to one's success. 

Talented students are selected for the program based on their enthusiasm for learning new skills and their desire to master the latest technologies.  For four years, these ITAP interns are immersed in real-life working environments both on and off campus in ways that benefit the students, the university, and the region’s business community.  Interns spend an average of 8 to 10 hours per week in training and job-related activities, sharpening their technical and leadership skills while earning wages higher than the typical minimum wages for work-study programs.  In addition, because student interns participate in ITAP over the course of their entire college careers, the university is able to draw on a reliable pool of talented, well-trained, and affordable workers.
