Internships are intended to give professional experience to help bridge to a new career upon graduation. Students whose programs require an internship or practicum may potentially work off-campus in paid or unpaid internships, up to 10 hours per week, during the academic year. The role of the internship varies within each of the master's programs at the Graduate School of Education. A student's Program Director is most often the person who supervises internship units, although other faculty members may be appropriate.
