NAS 481 - Science Internships

Credits: 1-12

Prerequisite(s): Permission of Dean of the School of Humanities and Sciences and a minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA, CES major or ES minor with 60 college credit hours.
This opportunity offers students practical work experience within the Natural Sciences discipline. Students are encouraged to seek out internship opportunities in areas that align with the student’s career goals. The number of credits awarded is dependent on how many hours of work per week the student is able to dedicate solely to the internship requirements. Students will complete a minimum of 40 hours per credit hour at a site, usually during a 12-week period (240 hours = 20 hours per week for 12 weeks). The Science Internship may be repeated up to a maximum of 12 credit hours towards graduation. This course does not satisfy any requirements for the CES major; may be counted as an elective course (4 credits maximum) towards the ES minor with chair permission. This course is graded on a Pass/Fail system.
