Students of all majors can get credit and funding for internships that they have found through their own connections. The “Set Up Your Own” option is a great way for students to gain university credit for local, national, or global internships.
In order to qualify as a legitimate internship and receive university credit, the host office and intern must meet the following criteria:
-
Be a legitimate, established organization.
-
Provide substantive duties and a dedicated work space.
-
Fulfill hour requirements (Local and National interns need 9+ hours/week. Washington DC and global must be full time).
-
Hinckley Interns must register 3-12 credit hours for the internship class during that semester.
-
Academic credit is obtained by fulfilling a successful internship, writing a research paper, completing assignments, attending mandatory meetings, and receiving a positive supervisor evaluation.
