Study Internships in the Hartford Region |
Internships are a form of independent study involving a combination of supervised field-work activity and traditional academic inquiry under the direction of a faculty sponsor. They may be undertaken by any matriculated undergraduate, with the exception of freshmen. There are two types of internships: exploratory internships, which are valued at one-half course credit, and integrated internships, which may be taken for one or, in exceptional circumstances, two course credits. Many internships are available in the Hartford region with private and public agencies, business and industry, cultural, educational and health institutions, and other community groups. The Internship Coordinator assists students in locating suitable internships or research opportunities related to their academic program.
