There are three forms that must be completed to receive academic credit. Please note that all forms must be picked up by the student in the Career Services Office. They must be filled out completely, signed by all appropriate faculty, staff, advisers and internship supervisors before they are submitted to the M Center.

The forms are:

1.) Internship Job Description

• Ask your prospective internship sponsor to complete this form describing your responsibilities and the work you will perform.
• See a Career Counselor for a review of the description and approval.

2.) Petition for Academic Credit 

Suggestions for Completing Form:

• Make an appointment with your faculty adviser or a professor who will act as your academic supervisor during the internship.
• Complete the top portion of this form and discuss your plans.
• If satisfactory, your academic supervisor will complete and sign the form.
