IST 8101 Field Experience/Internship
Students in the MS IST program can enroll in a three-credit hour, semester-long supervised field-experience/internship. Students will employ a research methodology to complete their selected project. Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) is evaluated as part of the overall IST-8101 Field Experience/Internship course. The evaluation results are based on the student meeting all the agreed-upon criteria and meeting all the requirements for documenting the experience through written reports (e.g., course assignments). The Academic Research Process (ARP) is deployed including an Internship Supervisor Evaluation form that must be completed and submitted during the last scheduled class meeting for face-to-face and hybrid courses or before Sunday of the final week for online courses.
Prerequisite
Program Chair approval required to approve a letter of intent for an internship by a valid employer.
