Field Placements
Bridging the Classroom and the Workplace
Field placements help to bridge the gap between classroom theory and practical on-the-job application. While earning credit, you can apply concepts learned through your coursework to help expand your learning.
Choices abound for students interested in internships. In fact, in many majors, you may select an internship that would best suit your career interests and goals. A typical internship is a commitment of 8 to 10 hours a week for a semester, totaling 120 hours. More about Internships>>
