Internships
Academic internships offer students opportunities to gain practical experience and to reflect on academic subjects within different settings outside the classroom. Students can earn between one and three credits for an academic internship approved through the School of Arts and Sciences. Arts and Sciences faculty members serve as sponsors to facilitate learning from the connections that are made between the internship setting and academic subjects.
