The College defines an internship as any short-term, supervised work experience specifically related to a student’s declared major, for which the student earns (3) academic credits. The internship should provide students with a meaningful experience directly related to their course of study. Students are guided through their internship experience by a credentialed faculty member who assists in developing measurable learning outcomes, and grades mid-term and end-of-term projects, and serves as the intern’s advocate.

Note: The College only supports internships that award college credit, and/or paid internships. Students pay the standard tuition rate for a (3) credit internship course.
