EDUCATIONAL LEADERSHIP INTERNSHIP

Catalog description

An ongoing experience in three different pre-K-12 or community education locations and with three different field supervisors. Internship/field experiences commonly begin in the student's school/district and include two summer experiences: one in a central office, the other in a school when students are in session (e.g., summer school). Students are encouraged to complete one internship in an urban school district and at least one internship in a nonurban setting. Fall or spring terms do not have stated hour requirements. The entire internship, field experiences (EDL 702), and common core experiences should total 1,300 hours. Students enroll in EDL 703 at the end of their program, preferably after 24 credit hours have been completed. Students are encouraged to begin field and internship experiences upon admission to the program. Confer with the program adviser for details.
