General Information
for Supervised Learning Experience
- Requirements for Eligibility
- The student will be considered for an
internship if he/she is:
- A senior majoring in Psychology.
- All course work in the major is to be completed before
the start of the internship.
-
To quality for internship placement,
students must have completed the Pre-Internship Seminar. The necessary
application forms are normally completed early in the semester
which precedes the anticipated internship. Only those internships
which have been approved by the Psychology Department will be
considered. A student may locate and suggest a new internship,
but he/she should be aware that such a request must be submitted
early enough to be evaluated for approval. It is suggested that
the student consider the type of facility desired, the preferred
location, and the quality of experience (depth and scope) available.
Phone calls or letters to a number of facilities should be followed
by an initial visit. During these initial visits the student should
gain assurance that the required internship guidelines can be
met. The internship must be approved by the Pre-Internship instructor
or Internship coordinator.

them during the internship. See the syllabus (#1) for further information.

Students on internship will continue
to be eligible for services from Counseling and Student Health Services,
the library, and the Computer Lab.
