Under faculty supervision, students can gain experience in a range of Classics-related programs, at public or private institutions, including museums and/or federal agencies. Skills can be developed in the areas of public speaking and engagement, digital humanities, and cultural heritage management. Credit hours earned are based upon readings or research supervised by CLAS faculty to lend some intellectual foundation to the internship experience. A minimum of 1 credit hour in background readings and research must be completed in 3881 concurrently with, and regardless of, the number of hours earned in 3880. A substantial research paper or report must be submitted at the end of the semester during which the internship training is completed. These credit hours may count in the minimum required for the CLAS major or minor. Normally, a 3.0 grade point average, 6 hours of prior work and prior approval of a specific plan of work by the director of undergraduate studies in Classical and Mediterranean Studies are required. Offered on a graded basis only and must be taken concurrently with 3880. Co-requisite: 3880. Variable credit: [1-6] (No AXLE credit)
