I worked for a professor (in the sociology department, modeling knowledge networks) as an undergrad, getting paid 2x minimum wage as a junior while taking courses. Doing actual programming and CS work (python, websites, databases). As many hours as I wanted, and he was always looking for more help. For full-time (salaried) internships, I got them at major companies and lived there for a semester, then came back to UIUC.
