A practicum/internship will help you gain invaluable knowledge and skills that can serve as a stepping-stone to your career. You can find an internship locally, in a major city, or abroad. Seeking an practicum/internship requires a great deal of initiative on your part - you must both find a site where you can work and connect with a faculty member who will support you in your academic efforts related to that work.

For most students, setting up an internship/practicum involves searching in Handshake and meeting with Political Science advising for choice of course and for guidance around seeking a faculty sponsor.

Varies from 1 to 18 credits

Permission is required for interchange registration during all registration periods.
