CHEM 385

Internship in Chemistry

Off-campus chemistry internships can be arranged for qualified students. Students work 10-12 (3 semester hours) or 13-15 (4 semester hours) hours per week throughout the semester under the supervision of an off-campus employer-supervisor and a faculty internship coordinator. Interns will meet with their faculty coordinator bi-weekly, keep a reflective journal, and submit a final written paper summarizing their internship experience. The off-campus supervisor will send in an evaluation report on the work of the intern. To be enrolled in an internship, the student must have junior or senior standing, must have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or better, an average GPA of 2.0 or better in all science and Mathematics courses, completed the second semester of organic chemistry (CHEM 262) or equivalent, and approval from both the department and the off-campus employer. To be enrolled in this course, the student must submit a completed research agreement form to the office of academic services
