WORK 190 - Career Exploration Internship

The intent of this course is to add to the student’s exposure to areas of the fashion and related industries beyond the required experiential learning courses and to provide a letter of credit to the employer. The internship must be in an area relevant to the student’s overall career goals and experience. Students may gain exposure to various aspects of the fashion and related industries, in areas such as marketing, publishing, merchandising, buying, or product development. The internship gives students an opportunity to evaluate, appraise, and relate actual job experience to work learned in the classroom. At the end of the semester students are evaluated and graded by their supervisor. In addition, each student must identify job-related objectives and maintain a journal to document how these objectives were achieved.
