Learn in a professional setting. Internships are “a form of experiential learning that integrates knowledge and theory learned in the classroom with practical application and skills development in a professional setting” (National Association of Colleges and Employers). They sharpen your skills, expand your horizons, and allow you to cultivate meaningful professional connections and experience. Participating in an internship can also be used as a component of applying for the CLAS Dean’s Medal, to which you can apply in your last semester.
Earn academic credits. CLAS majors can earn up to three academic credits per semester for internships through IDS4940: Liberal Arts and Sciences Internship. This pass/fail web-based course counts toward upper electives and helps students get the most out of their internships. Each credit requires a minimum of 50 internship hours. Internships must be at least four weeks in duration to be eligible for credits.
The IDS4940 Application Form must be completed by both the student and internship supervisor before the deadline for each semester:
| Semester | Applications Open | Deadline |
|---|---|---|
| Spring 2023 | October 31, 2022 | January 10, 2023 |
| Summer C 2023 | March 27, 2023 | May 11, 2023 |
- Late enrollment is allowed in some circumstances, but students are responsible for any fees charged by the Registrar and disruptions to financial aid disbursement. Internship credits cannot be awarded retroactively after an internship is completed.
- Students interested in earning credits for international internships through CLAS must apply for IDS4940: Liberal Arts and Sciences International Internship.
- To earn internship credits in their majors, students must verify their department’s or program’s internship requirements and application process directly. An internship that does not qualify for credits in the major might still be eligible for CLAS IDS4940. However, students cannot earn credits twice for the same internship.
Start exploring. Whether full-time or part-time, local or remote, semester- or project-based, there is a wide variety of internships available across careers and industries spanning for-profit, nonprofit, and governmental settings. It is never too late to start exploring internship options, but starting early will give you access to the broadest opportunities while also preparing you to apply for last-minute openings.
