Related Experience is any experience that relates to your career objective. Therefore, part-time or summer jobs, internships, co-ops, class projects, volunteerism, and clubs can all be related experience. You should describe each experience in detail, as though it were a “job.” If you have participated in any of the following, and it relates to your career goal, it belongs in the Related Experience section.
