Information on internships (From <strong>Middlebury</strong> <strong>College</strong> Website)<br />
http://www.middlebury.edu/academics/sa/internships/<br />
Interns will be required to fulfill a variety of work related and academic assignments:<br />
Interns will work from 10-15 hours a week.<br />
Interns will complete an independent research paper (~20 pages) in the target language that<br />
will be graded by a faculty member on site.<br />
Interns will keep a daily journal in the target language of their activity at the internship that<br />
should be a record of the internship experience: recording assignments given, tasks<br />
completed, personal impressions (of the field of employment and host site‟s role in it), etc.<br />
Upon completion of the internship, Students must submit a 1-2 paragraph summary<br />
description of the internship (in English) for posting on our webpage.<br />
Interns must also complete an evaluation form at the end of their internship.<br />
Interns will earn credit equal to that of a regular course for the internship and take one less<br />
class that semester compared to the normal course load. Students may NOT take the normal<br />
full load of courses for their site AND also receive academic credit for their internship.<br />
Internships will receive a letter grade.<br />
Interns are not allowed to receive any salary or other financial support from their internship<br />
hosts.<br />
At the start of the internship, internship students, their internship supervisor and the<br />
internship coordinator will sign a form agreeing to the terms for receiving credit. At the end<br />
of the internship, all parties will sign a similar form verifying that all requirements were met.<br />
Upon receiving these three signatures, the internship will appear on the student‟s <strong>Middlebury</strong><br />
transcript and the student will receive academic credit.<br />
