Students are responsible for defining their own learning outcomes within the parameters of their work environment and are expected to become participating members of the sponsoring organization. Students reflect upon and communicate the learning that is occurring by completing a learning journal, participating in regular meetings with a faculty sponsor and developing a final project.
- Site Supervisors
play an important role in helping interns define realistic expectations for the experience, providing training and on-site guidance. Supervisors also provide valuable information on the student’s progress.
|
- Faculty Sponsors
provide academic guidance by helping students combine theory with experience. Sponsors meet regularly with students to raise questions, challenge assumptions, and offer assistance. The faculty sponsor also evaluates the experience and assigns credit.
- The Internship Coordinator is the connection between the faculty, the student, and the work site. The coordinator assists in the development of internships, screens and prepares students, and maintains contact with all of the parties involved.
