Internship in Arch

Catalog description

This course is designed for students in their second year of architectural coursework, giving them an opportunity to obtain real-world experience in the design and construction industry. Internships and co-op job opportunities are available throughout the community; however, there is no guarantee of internship placement. The ultimate responsibility for obtaining a placement rests with the student. Assistance is provided by department faculty and Onondaga's internship office. Internships may be paid or unpaid. A learning contract containing specific educational objectives that relate to both the work experience and academic studies is developed between the student and a faculty internship coordinator. Course requirements include a minimum of 60 hours of work, maintenance of a work journal, and a final paper. Open to ARH majors only. Prerequisites: Approval of department, minimum G.P.A. of 2.5, and sophomore standing.
