On-Campus Internship Policy
In an interest to provide increased opportunities for students studying in Los Angeles, the institution is authorizing on-campus internship opportunities that would allow students to intern on campus and receive credit through the Hameetman Career Center‚ Internship Program (INT 100 and INT 200). On-campus internships are distinct from the institution‚ Work Study Program and various on-campus leadership programs by providing project based exposure in professional occupational areas, whereby the primary goal is that the student intern is the beneficiary of professional learning. On-campus departments wishing to create internship positions or willing to host a student intern by student request, must work with the HCC to assure that they are developing an internship opportunity that ascribes to the department’s criteria. To assure student learning of the highest caliber, the department’s philosophy is to set on-campus internships to the same rigorous standard ascribed to internships available in for-profit and public service organizations. For a complete outline of requirements and policy surrounding on-campus opportunities, please contact the Hameetman Career Center.
