 Working with Students
Faculty members are probably the first to
respond to students’ questions about
internships. You have experience in the field
and may have many professional contacts. In some
academic departments, faculty place students at
internship sites. In other departments, faculty
have lists, share information and sometimes
guide students in a direction, based on their
knowledge of the student.
The Internship Coordinator, housed in the Career
Services Office, is available to help faculty
and students find appropriate internship sites
and to assist students in understanding the
internship process.
The following faculty responsibilities are from
LHU’s
Internship Memorandum of Agreement :
-
The faculty supervisor, in conjunction
with the on-site supervisor, must
develop and write a detailed
pre-internship description of the
internship responsibilities before the
internship commences.
-

credits for internship; whether credits
will be taken for pass/fail, letter
