Internships
Make connections, get hands-on experience, and build important skill sets. Internships not only give you a competitive edge in your future career, they also provide a unique opportunity for personal as well as professional growth.
Internships are available for both undergraduate and graduate students and may be taken for credit or no-credit.
Requirements
- Letter from the employer describing the position and the name of the direct supervisor.
- Permission from the department chair of the major area of study in order to register for the internship course. An advisor will be assigned once you are registered.
- Commitment to a minimum 150 hours of field experience (preferably over a 14-week period).
- Development with faculty advisor of learning objectives, with periodic follow-up meetings with advisor (minimum of three times per semester).
- Maintenance of a weekly activity log, forwarded regularly to advisor, and a final paper/report (five-page minimum) discussing the work experience and including a two-page reflection on the impact of the work experience on the proposed learning goals.
- Completion of ICP (Internship Certificate Program) orientation and registration with Experiential Education.
- Students interested in pursuing an internship must go through the internship checklist to understand the process first. From there, they can then fill out the student request form in the CPT Application form and then submit it to their advisor along with their internship offer letter.
