WGS 483 - Women and Gender Studies Internship I

Practical guided learning experience at a business or organization with the student spending at least 10 weeks (8 weeks in the summer) for a total of at least 120 hours of time at an internship site. Supervised placement provides experience appropriate to the student’s knowledge skills and interests. In addition to the on-site activities, students complete reflective assignments and, depending on cycle, participate in seminars, skill-building sessions, leadership program activities and/or networking events to connect their experiential learning with their academics. Performance evaluation assessment of the internship and self-assessment of learning occur at the end of the semester. Students can apply for pre-existing internships or consult with Assistant Director of Internships and their home department to discuss a new opportunity. All college policies related to internships apply.
