The New Hampshire College Computer<br />

INTERNSHIP<br />

Recognizing that learning and education do<br />

not take place in the classroom alone, the<br />

Internship Program at New Hampshire<br />

College incorporates what the student learns<br />

in the classroom with practical work<br />

experience. Through participation in this<br />

program, students may work in the business<br />

community and receive credit for the<br />

experience. They are also provided with a<br />

short term income.<br />

DOMESTIC INTERNSHIP<br />

Most majors offer an opportunity for an<br />

internship experience. Depending on the<br />

program of study, a student may receive 3 to<br />

12 credits for an internship. Participants<br />

must be in good academic standing, and<br />

receive approval from the Department<br />

Chairman and the Director of Cooperative<br />

Education. All candidates must also be<br />

interviewed, screened and selected by the<br />

company granting the internship. The<br />

college maintains a working relationship with<br />

current and potential employers for this<br />

program, both within the Manchester area,<br />

and throughout the northeast. Students are<br />

also encouraged to develop business<br />

contacts that will assist them and the<br />

College in developing new opportunities.<br />

FOREIGN INTERNSHIPS<br />

15<br />

Students pursuing marketing, retailing or<br />

fashion merchandising programs of study<br />

have the opportunity to participate in a 6-<br />

week 6-credit, summer internship. Coordinated<br />

by New Hampshire College, and used<br />

by 2 and 4-year colleges throughout the<br />

country, the goal of this program is to bring<br />

the real world of international distribution to<br />

American students.<br />

Time is spent meeting the customer<br />

and working behind the scenes in organization,<br />

marketing, merchandising and<br />

promotion. Management puts the intern<br />

through an intensive "training program"<br />

which allows application of classroom<br />

theory to the International scene, Training<br />

includes fashion showings, department<br />

meetings, and an explanation of inventory<br />

control systems. Cultural side trips are also<br />

arranged.<br />

Current opportunities exist in Belgium,<br />

Denmark, England, France, and Hong Kong.
