College Internship Experience

1 Credit · Level: Undergraduate

This one-credit, pass/fail elective is for College sophomores, juniors, and seniors in good standing who will be participating in an internship during the semester of enrollment or in the previous summer. The academic work of the course includes required readings and postings through Canvas that encourage the student to reflect on their internship experience and how it will shape their vocational aspirations and personal formation. In lieu of class meetings, students will participate by submitting assignments through Canvas, engaging in introspective activities, and completing a group project around career discernment and the world of work. The course concludes with the submission of an employer questionnaire that must be completed by the employer and returned to the instructor before the last day of classes. Enrollment is by instructor permission only. In order to gain permission to register for the course, please email the instructor with proof of internship. If a student is interviewing with an organization that requires academic credit (as a condition of participation), the College Dean’s Office can provide a letter of explanation. CASS-3925 may be taken more than once, but only one credit will count toward the 120 credits required for graduation.
