What kind of commitment should a student enrolled in the FEP be prepared to make?
Plan to spend the equivalent of one workday (8 hours) per week on site, for a total of 110 hours per semester. Sometimes students spend more time (this is optional) depending on what they want to get out of the experience. In addition, you are required to participate in a five-session seminar series and participate in an on-site mid-semester visit. Your individualized final assignment will be developed in conjunction with your Field Supervisor and Teaching Fellow, and approved by the Faculty Supervisor. Think of the internship (S-997) as a custom-designed course, and commit yourself to it as you would to any course.
