    This course is designed to provide hands-on practical/work experiences in the biological or health sciences. Internships are an opportunity for students to link theory with practice. They are also designed to help students network with professionals, increasing opportunities to receive full-time employment after graduation. Internships can introduce students to multiple professions, helping them narrow down their specific areas of interest early on in their college experience. They are temporary, on-the-job experiences intended to help students identify how their studies in the classroom apply to the workplace.Internships can be paid or volunteer in nature. They can occur with a business, organization, or government agency and are individually arranged by the student in collaboration with a biological sciences faculty member and a supervisor at the workplace.This course is repeatable for up to 6 credits, with no more than 3 credits per semester. Each credit requires 45 clock hours of internship experience. Internships are typically pass/fail credits. Students desiring a grade will need to negotiate a contract with significant academic work beyond the actual work experience.
