Internship in Forensic Psychology

Catalog description

Students seeking a master’s degree in forensic psychology may opt to complete their degree by taking an internship in forensic psychology instead of the Capstone course. Students interested in this option are required to submit paperwork approving their internship site prior to enrolling in this course and no later than their eighth course in the program. During the internship experience, students will meet weekly with their assigned professor as well as their approved internship site supervisor to discuss their experiences. Weekly assignments include submission of required evaluations and preparation for the final theoretically grounded presentation summarizing the internship experience. Internship experiences are designed to guide candidates through specific standards-aligned experiences with resulting growth in competencies demonstrated through application in practice. This course is graded using an A, B, F grading scale.
