LS-349: Internship
The internship course provides an off-campus working and learning experience in an area of the student’s interest and major disciplines under the supervision of faculty and field/site supervisors. The internship site (including the site supervisor) will be identified/arranged by the student in consultation with the student’s major program director, and the student must meet with the internship supervising faculty member (Internship Director) in-person or online, to discuss and to get an approval for the identified internship site and work. Once approved, the student and the site supervisor will discuss/determine the student's goals, the means of achieving them, and the manner in which the site supervisor evaluates the student’s internship work at the site.
Internships must be set up for no less than 60 hours for the 3-credit option or 120 hours for the 6-credit hours option. It is also possible for students to repeat the 3-credit option twice. Students are required to complete the coursework including, but limited to, keeping a journal of their work, maintaining a log of their hours, writing a reflective essay on their internship experiences, and completing all internship documentation for the School of Liberal Arts.
