Completing Internship Requirements

To register for an internship, please see this blog. Internship credit is not awarded retroactively. Students must be registered for internship credits BEFORE internship hours are started. In other words, students cannot apply for credit for an internship that is already completed. All internships must receive prior approval to count toward academic credit.

Internship assignments and deadlines are described on the Canvas page that accompanies the student’s registration in the Internship “class.” The descriptions below are meant to provide students considering an internship with information on what is expected.

Generally, to complete the internship, a student must complete the following assignments:

1. Short description with picture, intern’s name, logo of organization at which internship was completed, job title at the organization, major and concentration, and expected graduation date. This description might be broadcast on the screens in the Jepson Lobby.

2. Longer description of less than 400 words for publication on website. Description will answer the following questions.

Who am I?
Where did I intern?
What did I do?
How did my GU business education prepare me for success?
How did having an internship set me up for future success?

3. Final project. There are two choices for the final project. Only one is required. The first is to make a poster presentation to fellow students and faculty in the SBA. The second choice is to write a paper on the experiential learning outcomes outlined by the student at the beginning of the internship. The paper requires three pages for each credit earned. Parameters and instructions are in the Canvas class.

4. Self-evaluation by intern will be emailed to intern at end of the internship.

5. Supervisor’s evaluation of intern will be emailed to supervisor at end of the internship.
