Faculty Sponsor Evaluation

All of these are due no later than last day of regular class for the semester in which the internship is taken. Based on the above components the faculty supervisor will assess if the student has successfully completed the internship. The faculty sponsor is looking for preface indicators such as workplace attendance, and the student work journal, the successful completion of assigned duties. If these materials are not returned to the faculty sponsor by the date (last day of regular classes for the term) the student will not receive credit for the internship.
