Student Intern Responsibilities

To learn and perform tasks required by site supervisor in a professional and responsible manner.
To intern a minimum of 120 hours during a given semester (At least 10 hours per week for 12 weeks of a semester or any combination that equals 120 hours during a summer term. Exact hours per day and week may be negotiated. Final exam week is not included. Attendance and punctuality are important assessment components of the internship program.)
To follow the Internship/Field Experience agency's rules and regulations.
To maintain a daily reflective journal of internship activities. The journal is a tool designed to help the intern think things through and should not be used merely to record events of the day. This log should be delivered or mailed to the faculty coordinator at appointed times throughout the internship.
To meet with the faculty coordinator on appointed dates and times.
To complete a mid-semester internship/field experience progress report and a final internship/field experience evaluation report.

An internship/field experience is a commitment to a particular organization and should be honored. If, however, due to some unforeseen circumstance, the student must withdraw from the internship/field experience, the student must first contact the Chairperson of the department. Then the student must talk with the agency supervisor. The agency should be given one week's notice before withdrawal. Students may not change internships during the course of the semester without approval of the chairperson of the department. Students who receive a grade of Incomplete (I) for the Internship/Field Experience course will not be eligible for Dean's List for that semester.
