Guidelines
- Job responsibilities should consist of professional level work suitable
to the skills and knowledge of graduate students.
- If possible job activities should center around a project that can
be completed within the summer time frame (a maximum of 12 weeks).
- Negotiations regarding duration, extent of and compensation for the
internship are between the employer and the student.
- If at all possible students should report to a designated person responsible
for guidance and supervision of the project.
- Although a formal report to the School at the end of the internship
is not required, the School welcomes feedback from both employers and
students regarding the experience.
- Upon successful completion of the project, students should receive
an evaluative report on their work from the supervisor.
