COMM 4880 - Internship

12 cr. 36 hr. Day course offered every Semester. Also offered evenings.

The Communications Media Internship is the capstone graduation requirement for all department majors. It is a full-time, semester-long, pre-professional learning experience that is designed to successfully link academic preparation with successful entry into a student’s career path. Interns must successfully complete an Internship Qualification Program in the semester immediately prior to the internship, that includes mandatory attendance at a series of seminars, the development and defense of a professional portfolio before a faculty committee, and an internship placement interview with the Program Director. Internship placement is competitive and based on academic performance, faculty recommendations, and performance in the Internship Qualification Program. MAJ Integrated High Impact Practice
