Internship

Catalog description

An internship is an upper division planned and supervised field experience designed to apply academic knowledge to an actual work environment. Internship credit must have educational benefit and be a genuine work experience. It involves the application of learned skills, the integration of theory and practice, the assessment of education as it relates to the specific work experience, and examination of the nature and values of the organization or agency that is the setting of the work experience. Internships must be related to a student's major. Credit is not given for on-the-job work, but for the demonstrated reflection and learning.
