Defining an internship experience

  • The skills or knowledge learned must be transferable to other employment settings
  • The experience has a defined beginning and end, and a job description with desired qualifications
  • There are clearly defined learning objectives/goals related to the professional goals of the student鈥檚 academic coursework
  • There is supervision by a professional with expertise and educational and/or professional background in the field of the experience
  • There is routine feedback by the experienced supervisor 
  • There are resources, equipment, and facilities provided by the host employer that support learning objectives/goals
