Internship: Information Systems Management

Catalog description

Information Systems Management students may undertake an internship earlier in their academic career which can be 2 or 4 credits. To qualify for an ISMM internship, students should be in good standing within their program and have the approval of their advisor. Students wishing to consider doing an ISMM internship should submit a proposal outlining their internship which must then be approved by the Internship Program 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 the 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.
