# On-Campus Internships

BYU-Idaho offers students on-campus internships based on department needs. Guidelines for students and hiring managers.

## Guidelines for On-campus Internships

These guidelines are intended to provide students with high-quality experiences, comparable to off-campus internships. Students will be able to focus on gaining valuable skills, rather than trying to juggle the demands of work and school simultaneously.

On-campus internships should be driven by the department, rather than a student's request. The department should identify a need, determine if a qualified supervisor is available to oversee the student, and then submit a request.

## Requirements for On-campus Internships

- Students may complete one campus internship.
- Positions must be 20-40 hours per week unless previously approved as an exception.
- Students must be paid through student employment (volunteering or working for scholarships will not qualify).
- On-Campus internships must last the entire length of a semester.
- Job duties and responsibilities must be substantial/elevated (no basic labor is permitted).
- The internship must require skills obtained in the classroom related to the student's major and courses taken, prerequisite training, technical skills, etc.
- No teaching assistant or research assistant positions will be approved.
- No secretarial/administrative assistant positions will be approved.
- The student's supervisor must work in the same department.
- The supervisor must be a qualified mentor in the student's field of study. Other student employees do not qualify as internship supervisors.
- The supervisor must be able to oversee the student's work, ensure that correct principles are being applied and provide appropriate feedback.
- An educational background/degree is preferred, but extensive experience in the industry may qualify the supervisor as an internship supervisor.

## On-Campus Request Guidelines

The hiring supervisor submits a request to create an internship at internships@byui.edu. The proposal must include all of the following information:

- Job title and description
- Appropriate for which major(s)
- Paid
- Hours per week and total weeks
- Name, title, and qualification of supervisor
- If pre-selected, the name of the student filling the position
- Designation as a one-time or ongoing internship position
- The business need for the internship position
- How this experience would lead to gainful employment in the student's chosen field
- Date of request
- Signature of requesting a supervisor and Department Chair/Director
Inter-University Relations | BYU-Idaho

# Inter-University Relations

BYU-Idaho has established relationships with several universities for students seeking graduate programs and other baccalaureate degrees.

## Explore Opportunities Beyond BYU-Idaho

BYU-Idaho seeks to promote opportunities for exceptional students who seek to further their educational pursuits. Whether you're considering a graduate program or want to explore baccalaureate studies outside of BYU-Idaho, we have formed graduate and undergraduate agreements with several other universities.

## Inter-University Agreements

Inter-university agreements vary according to the partnerships we have with other universities. All agreements provide an exciting range of programs for students to choose from. Agreements are classified into two general categories: expedited graduate programs (also known as 3+ programs) and undergraduate programs (also called 2+ programs). The agreements follow program-specific outcomes.

# Students & Inter-University Agreements

Students interested in an expedited graduate program or a degree not offered by BYU-Idaho, can explore education options with other inter-university related programs.

We seek to increase the number of degree programs available to dedicated, high-achieving BYU-Idaho students by facilitating cooperative agreements between BYU-I and other respected colleges and universities. Our agreements generally allow you, the student, to focus your learning in an accelerated and cost-saving way.

- Students who choose one of our expedited graduate programs graduate with fewer credits and in less time.
- Students who choose to explore degree offerings we don't currently offer ourselves can still attend BYU-I for the unique BYU-I Learning experience and then share their growth and skills as they move on to complete baccalaureate programs with another university.

We continue to explore many new and exciting educational opportunities. If you would like to see us explore other areas, or if you have questions that aren't answered on our site, please contact the Academic Office.

Online students are free to explore and apply for the opportunities defined through our agreements but usually cannot remain online students. Most of our agreements are connected to day programs.
