to all students in both majors in the department. The internship
offering provides credit for supervised involvement in the
private and public sector of the economy. It major purpose
is to give the student an opportunity to test and apply
their classroom work in the non-academic marketplace. Consequently,
only juniors and seniors qualify and they must have completed
background coursework in the department including:

an internship. A student with marginal academic record
may be discouraged from taking an internship until his/her
class performance improves.
