SPAN 150 - Internship in SpanishSemester Hours: 1-6
Fall, Spring
Spanish majors and minors are encouraged to find, in not-for-profit groups as well as in for-profit organizations, internships in which they will apply skills learned in their Spanish major or minor to work outside the academic setting. This course, as all courses with the SPAN prefix, is taught in Spanish.
Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
Subject to prior approval by the department chairperson, Spanish majors and minors may receive credit for an internship they have been offered. A minimum GPA of at least 3.0 is required for student eligibility for participation in internship courses. A preliminary interview will be held with the student and the department chairperson or faculty adviser to establish the nature of the academic work associated with on-site work of the internship. There will be a minimum of three meetings (one at the beginning of the internship, one around mid-term, and one at the end of the work experience); at the last meeting, students report on their on-site work and its relevance to their field of study in Spanish to the faculty internship director. Meetings may be either face-to-face or via distance learning. A minimum of 28 hours of on-site work per semester hour is required, accompanied by a minimum of 10 hours of academic work per semester hour – for example, reading, research, and a term paper or final project, to be determined by a faculty adviser in conjunction with the student. Final grade will be based on both academic and on-site performance. An on-site evaluation of “poor” will result in a final grade no higher than C. May be repeated for up to 6 s.h.; only 3 s.h. of SPAN 150 may be applied toward the minor in Spanish ; 6 s.h. may be applied toward the major in Spanish . May not be taken on Pass/D+/D/Fail basis.
