INTERNSHIPS

Here is a survey about internships. I am trying to determine what, if anything, we can do to improve your experience at PCC. One of the questions we would like to determine at this point is how students and potential employers regard internships.

should internships be a requirement or an option? Knowing that many of our students have acquired their employment as a direct result of the internship they participated in, we are hesitant to make drastic changes. I am sending a similar questionaire to the advisory board and to graduates of the deat program. Please take a few minutes to complete this so we can have a complete picture of what you, the students in the program, and potential employers are saying about the deat requirement for internships.

  1. How many hours do you think an intern should work?
    within our system there are two choices coe 111 (160 hours) or coe 112 (320) hours. Over the usual summer semester of 9 weeks that would be 18 hours per week or 36 hours per week. *
    coe 111 160 hours total /9 weeks or 18 hours per week
    coe 112 320 hours total/9 weeks or 36 hours per week
