SPAN 150 - Internship in SpanishSemester Hours: 1-6
Periodically
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.
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 faculty adviser in conjunction with 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.
