This internship course is a form of service learning. The broad objective is to meet the students’ needs that are not covered in regular classes. They will seek to achieve real objectives for the community and an understanding of service learning. They will also develop work place skills through this experience. In this process, students link personal and social development with academic and cognitive development. The student will be assigned to an agency, community action group, or educational facility based upon his/her skills, knowledge, and general interests. The internship site chosen should apply toward the student’s field of study.
