FMER 390 Internship
Provides the opportunity for students to gain career-related experience in a professional environment outside of the classroom. Students identify opportunities and apply for internships independently. Student placements must be approved before the start of the internship. The internship coordinator offers faculty oversight of the academic component and guidance of the on-site internship. Students demonstrate achievement of goals through a weekly report and self-evaluation, on-site supervisor evaluations, and faculty evaluation of student artifacts. A minimum of 120 hours over 8 weeks or more of supervised work at the internship site is required for a 3-credit internship. Each additional credit requires 40 hours of on-the-job and/or classroom work. Students can complete up to two different internships, 3-6 variable credits each, not to exceed 9 credits in total. Course is repeatable for credit, subject to Department Chair’s approval.
