Internship: Humanities

Catalog description

Humanities students may undertake an internship early in their academic career which can be 2 or 4 credits. To qualify for a HUMN internship, students should be in good standing within their program and have the approval of their adviser. Students wishing to consider a HUMN internship should submit a proposal outlining their internship, which must then be approved by the Internship Coordinator. After the proposal is approved, students undertake an internship, which typically entails outplacement in an organization related to the student's interests or academic concentration. A minimum of 100 hours is required over the course of he semester. In addition to the hours at their internship, students meet regularly with the Internship Coordinator and other interns, maintain a weekly journal, and (required for a 4-credit internship) complete a final paper or work portfolio.
