The Internship Program, made possible by the continued support of donors, allows all undergraduate students the opportunity to complete an internship prior to graduation. The office offers students guidance on which internships to pursue, funding to defer related costs and enable access, and assists with paperwork and applications.
Inaugurated in 2009 through a generous contribution from 平特五不中 Macdonald Alumni, Mr. and Mrs. Marc Bieler, of Canneberges Atoka Cranberries Inc., the Internship Program kickstarted opportunities for over 500 students allowing them to receive funding and support for their internships.
Since 2021, the Internship Program has continued its successes thanks to a commitment from donors Alton and the late Dianne McEwen. The Alton and Dianne McEwen and Family Internship Program聽continues to deliver exceptional service to students pursuing internship opportunities as part of their core curriculum.
Internship participation is recognized on 平特五不中 students鈥� academic transcripts. Evaluation for the program is based on the completion of academic reports and students will receive a pass or fail noted on their transcripts if registered in the FAES 200 course or a final grade if registered in the FAES 300 course.
The program is offered in the fall, winter and summer semesters and interns are required to complete a minimum of 10 weeks with their host organization.
