Professional Internships

Select off-campus learning experiences may be accepted for academic credit. A full-time professor and the Associate Dean must authorize the professional internship class (BUAD 8101). The content and work field of the internship must match the teaching discipline of the instructor. A one-credit internship should be a work opportunity of at least 12-15 hours per week for 10-12 weeks. Students must file a copy of an approved contract with the Office of the Registrar. The supervising professor will specify the requirements for the internship grade on the contract, which include a weekly journal and end of semester full report. The grade received will be calculated into the grade point average for the trimester the student enrolled in the course. The internship must be completed before the graduation deadline. International students seeking a professional internship must be enrolled for at least nine hours in the two preceding trimesters and have the approval of the Director of Graduate Admissions/International Student Services located in SB Hall 102. Students are limited to a total of 6 credit hours of professional internship (BUAD 8101).
