The credit internship course is the academic component of the internship experience.  This course helps students reflect on their individual academic and professional goals and how they can apply  skills, knowledge and theory into their field sites.  This includes evaluating aspects of the internship site including mission, approach, policies, and the local, regional and international contexts and how it operates in practice over theory. Students will be challenged to think analytically about their internships and to connect their internship experiences to past and present academic work as well as identify future career aspirations and goals while recognizing professional strengths and areas for improvement. The course combines workplace and leadership skill building with academic research that culminates in the submission of research papers and presentations related to the internship. Students will be able to communicate how the career-related information gained from the internship experience changed or confirmed future academic and career plans in addition to articulate how knowledge gained from the internship experience will be used in other areas of life (social, jobs, classes, community service).
