This course prepares students for arts and culture internships on-campus and beyond by introducing them to careers in arts organizations, museums and performance venues and teaching students work practices and behaviors required in a formal, on-the-job setting. Students who successfully complete this course will become eligible to join a pool to be selected for on-campus internships the following semester. Open to all CHFA students except last semester seniors.

Seniors in their final semester should NOT enroll in this class.

Course will meet once a week on campus for lecture/discussion, field trips, and guest speakers. Discussion and assignments will be posted online in Moodle. Students will attend a minimum of two performances plus their capstone group project.

Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
