Internships<br />

Internships are required for most Cazenovia College degree programs. Ninetyeight<br />

percent <strong>of</strong> the 2009 graduating class participated in at least <strong>one</strong> internship<br />

experience. Internships connect academic study and pr<strong>of</strong>essional experience and<br />

provide students with relevant pr<strong>of</strong>essional experience <strong>of</strong>ten required <strong>by</strong> employers.<br />

Students may meet with their Program Directors and the Career Services Office to<br />

identify and evaluate internship goals and timelines. Eligibility varies <strong>by</strong> major, but<br />

students must meet the following general criteria:<br />

Students must meet general education and degree program prerequisites. Most<br />

academic majors require students to reach junior standing before beginning an<br />

internship.<br />

Because most majors have an internship requirement, students must consult with<br />

their advisors and program directors.<br />

Students participating in internships for academic credit must register for academic<br />

credit through Cazenovia College. (Internship on-site hours must be completed during<br />

the semester for which the student has registered). Most internships carrying academic<br />

credit have associated formal internship seminars requiring student participation.<br />
