Internship Meeting!

Dr. Arola just emailed this:
DTC Majors,

You will soon be receiving an email inviting you to an informational meeting about possible DTC Internships through the Center for Civic Engagement. For those who don't know or haven't quite conceptualized it yet, in order to graduate with a DTC degree you need at least 3 credits worth of an internship. This needs to be a position related to DTC in some way, can be done locally or remotely, and can be paid or unpaid. In order to receive the 3 credits, you sign up for English 498 and promise to do 150hrs of work over the course of a semester. Ultimately it is your responsibility to find an internship, but we will help as much as we can.

The upcoming meeting with CCE will explain the different types of opportunities available through their office. Additionally, they will want to hear from you about the types of positions you desire, feel comfortable with, etc. In particular, we need to work on making sure the position asks for technical skills that you either have already or can learn on the job.

So, keep an eye out for this email and if you haven't done an internship yet, please try to make it to the meeting on October 5th @ 4pm.

Thanks everyone. I hope your semesters are off to a grand start.

Sincerely,
Professor Arola
