Internship Readings and Research in EES

3-6 credits · Undergraduate

Under faculty supervision, students from any discipline can gain experience in a broad range of public and private organizations focused on work in Earth and Environmental Sciences. Credit hours earned are based upon readings or research supervised by EES faculty to lend some intellectual foundation to the internship experience. A minimum of 3 credit hours in background readings and research must be completed in 3881 concurrently with and regardless of the number of hours earned in 3880. A thorough/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 not count for the EES major or minor. Normally, a 2.7 grade point average, 6 hours of prior work in EES, and prior approval of a specific plan of work by the director of undergraduate studies in EES are required. [3-6]
