CO-OP AND INTERNSHIP

Co-operative Education and Internships are professional level experiential education for students to apply classroom theory to real life work situations. Students may do experiential education either as an academic internship in which they earn college credit for working with an employer or as a non-credit internship. Students may not always need academic credit, but would like to earn valuable work experience by utilizing a non-credit internship. Generally, a non-credit internship should be paid, according to Department of Labor standards.

Benefits:

• Interns may bring new ideas and fresh problem solving skills adding value to your company’s success.
• Interns bring professional level assistance to your organization at a low cost.
• Interns can be used to complete a project and alleviate added stress to full time employees.
• Interns can be hired for seasonal and part time employment.
• Internships offer a way of recruiting full time employees.

To participate:

• Develop a job description that will attract a potential intern. Determine if pay is possible. Fifty percent (or more) of the intern’s responsibilities should be professional level tasks.
• Post your internship job description on MSU JOB-link.
• Interview students who may be interested in the position.
• Complete a Learning Contract with your new intern. This is the student's responsibility to complete and return to Career Services.
• Be a good mentor and consistent supervisor to your intern.
• Offer constructive criticism and fill out a student evaluation form at the end of the student’s internship.
• Send a copy of the evaluation to: j.hawkins@moreheadstate.edu
• Pat yourself on the back for helping students become professionals.
