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.

Prerequisite(s): Completion of all General Education requirements and all other Communications Media major requirements with a cumulative Communications Media Grade Point Average of 2.5 or better at the time the Application for Internship is due.
