What is the minimum number of hours required for an internship?
Students are expected to devote a minimum of 10-20 hours of effort per week (or up to full-time in the summer) at the sponsoring facility during the period of their internship and should plan their internship experience in advance, taking into account their academic course work, schedules, and the need for timely graduation. Internships are normally undertaken for academic credit (BE196) or completed on a voluntary basis. Although there may be some internship opportunities that provide partial remuneration in lieu of academic credit, companies are under no obligation or expectation to offer some financial remuneration.
