Internships in Family Science and Human Development (6 Credits)
Child Development and Services, Family Science and Services, and Youth and Community Development majors complete a six-credit internship experience as part of their program of study. Internships offer students the opportunity to apply theories and principles from their academic program to real world situations and to synthesize their professional learning and preparation within a seminar-style, asynchronous online course. Internship may be completed during fall, spring, or a combination of summer I and II semesters. Students must have successfully completed 88 credits and any prerequisites (as established by catalog year) prior to beginning internship.
Getting Started
Professional experience coursework and placements are designed to provide students with opportunities to apply skills, identify personal strengths and areas for growth, demonstrate professional competencies, develop professional resources and explore a diverse array of careers within the field of Family Science and Human Development.
Internships are arranged by students with the support, guidance, and approval of the FSHD undergraduate internship coordinator. Internship registration and placement guidelines are detailed in the planning guide.
