What is the length, purpose, and nature of the internship?
Internships facilitate job placement. They are essential in gaining entry into the job market. Students work with the director in finding the internship position in the specialization of their choice. Fredonia’s SRT program has existed for over twenty-five years and boasts a long list of successful graduates. There is usually no shortage of internship opportunities. Internships, however, usually require the graduate to take up residency in one of the large centers of sound recording (ie. New York City, Los Angeles, Nashville) and are poorly compensated. They normally range from 6 to 15 weeks in length. Very often interning at a recording facility successfully leads to a job offer.
