Internships & Practicums

Internships & Practicums
- Internships and practicums are limited to degree-seeking students who have completed one full-time semester at Muhlenberg.
- Permission of your academic advisor(s) and a faculty sponsor are required. All experiences must be completed during the term in which the course is registered. No retroactive credit will be granted.
- Internship & practicum experiences may be added through the second week of the term. Consult the academic calendar for exact date.
- You may enroll only one (1) experience during any term, except when the experience is part of specifically designed programs, such as the Semester in Washington, Dana Scholars program, or Study Abroad.
- No more than four (4) course units of individualized instruction (internship, practicum, independent study/research, or special arrangement) may contribute to the 32 course unit degree requirement (34 units if you matriculated before fall 2017), except as required by special programs, such as the Dana Associates program.
- Internships and practicums may not be used to satisfy a general academic requirement; however, the experiences may fulfill major/minor requirements.
- Each experience will include an academic project to be defined by and submitted to the faculty sponsor for evaluation. The project may be written or presented at the discretion of the faculty sponsor.
- It is expected that 9-12 hours of work per week, or 126-168 total hours, are required for each course unit earned or 61-84 hours for .5 credit units earned.
- The internship site supervisor will submit a written evaluation of your work to your faculty sponsor, who will assign a final grade. Internships will be graded pass/fail, but do not count toward the three (3) course pass/fail maximum. Practicums, which are internships required for a major, will be assigned a traditional letter grade, A through F.

IEL Designation Review

Integrative and experiential learning opportunities offer different ways for students to develop and put into practice key skills that will enable them to succeed in their professional careers; to hone the skills and foster values essential to civic engagement; or to contribute to thinking about and seeking solutions for some of the world's complex problems.
