Internship, Practicum, Field and Clinical Experience


Internships, practica, field and clinical experiences allow students the opportunity to integrate theoretical classroom learning with practical, workplace experiences that relate to the student’s area of study. Eligibility for and expectations of students applying for these opportunities may vary by academic program. Standard across the College is the requirement that a minimum of 50 hours of on-site internship, practica, clinical or field work be completed per credit hour. Thus, a three credit clinical experience would require the completion of a minimum of 150 on-site hours. Information on internship, field and clinical opportunities can be obtained through academic divisions and from the Center for Experiential Learning (CEL). The breadth of these experiences, which can be credit or noncredit, paid or unpaid, can be arranged locally or in other geographic locations, during the academic year or during the summer. Credit for internships, practica, field and clinical experiences can be arranged through academic programs or the Center for Experiential Learning. Internship, practica, field and clinical applications must be completed, approved and registered for before a student begins the experience.
