Not Too Late for Spring!! INTERNSHIPS!

Hi all --

Please remember that if you have an Internship lined up for Spring, you can get up to 6 Sociology credits for it.  I am attaching the Internship Proposal that needs to be completed in order to get your internship approved for credit;  it may be well worth your time to fill it out.  

Make an appointment today (amclaug1@umd.edu) to talk over any questions you might have about this process.  I can help you find an internship, review your application materials, and go over any other questions you might have.

Reasons for doing an internship:

• Helps you to stand out in a competitive job market 

• Expands your resume 

• Makes contacts for job references 

• Internship may lead to a permanent position 

• Enables you to explore a variety of career interests, occupations, and work environments 

• Allows you to apply classroom knowledge 

• Develops new skills and builds on your experience 

• Develops professional relationships and mentors 

• Increases self-confidence, leadership skills, and builds interpersonal and communication skills

• Helps with some graduate school applications 

Thanks,
Amy McLaughlin
