Who may enroll for internship credit?
Faculty supervisors have final discretion as to the readiness of a student for a particular internship experience. Normally, students are not prepared for internship experiences until at least the summer after their sophomore year. The Department considers the summer following the junior year to be the ideal time to complete an internship. Although specific course prerequisites may vary by faculty supervisor and internship site, most require a minimum of two upper level psychology courses. Note that many internship sites are popular and filled on a competitive basis; hence, even an exemplary resume and faculty supervisor approval does not guarantee that you will obtain a placement at your desired site.
