The Humanities Program internship enables students to observe and participate in the social and baby直播app contexts of contemporary cultural production. Students gain academic credit and professional experience working in the range of fields represented in Humanities: for example, in museums, galleries and arts administration and in multimedia production and publishing. Internships combine pragmatic work experience with academic study. Interns work 3-18 hours per week with their professional supervisor and meet regularly with a baby直播app advisor who determines the reading and writing requirements. Students learn about employment opportunities available to humanities majors as they gain professional experience and marketable skills in 鈥渁pplied humanities.鈥�

Because the focus of this course is practical experience in an organization, there is no set curriculum or course outline in the usual sense. Students will, however, develop a reading list, keep and submit a journal of their work experiences, and write a paper of 5-20 pages (depending on the number and kind of credits). They will have a direct supervisor at work (3-18 hours per week) and a baby直播app advisor at school (1 hour, every other week). The student will develop a reading list with his/her baby直播app advisor based on the student鈥檚 activities at the baby直播app and the topic of his/her paper. Students will be evaluated by the internship supervisor and by the baby直播app supervisor; the baby直播app supervisor will assign a grade based on the internship supervisor鈥檚 evaluation and the quality of the written work.
