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.
