Domestic Internships
Getting Started
Students seek out their own domestic internship provider. In order for an internship experience to qualify for academic credit, students must work for a total of at least 42 hours per credit hour and for no less than 8 weeks. Note than no more than 3.00 credit hours can be applied toward Spanish and Portuguese majors and minors. It is also important that students apply for academic credit before they begin their internship, as credit will not be given retroactively (see the "Apply Now" button below) . After completing the application, students will be enrolled in the corresponding course.
