Internship Qualifications

An internship is about 10-12 hours per week per semester, or 150 hours for 3 credits. Internships can be taken for 3 to 12 credits, and count toward your 120 credits needed for graduation. To qualify for a psychology internship, you need to:

• Have a 3.0 or higher cumulative GPA
• Be a junior or senior
• Declared major in psychology
• Get approval from the internship site and the psychology internship supervisor

If accepted to do the internship or hired as an employee, email the psychology internship coordinator the following information:

• Your full name and student ID number
• Email and phone number
• Name of the internship/job site
• A brief description of what you would be doing that is psychology-related
• How many hours you will work on site during the semester
• Your site supervisor’s name, position, email and phone number

Once your internship is approved by the psychology internship coordinator, complete the Internship Form to register for PSYCH 497.
