Through the Dubuque Center students apply the knowledge and methods they learn in classes to their own community, and they bring experiences from the community back to their classrooms. The Center offers students a variety of learning experiences organized within two general categories. Interested students may apply for a special stipend. Format Students apply to the Center and, if they are accepted, they interview with one of the many local organizations affiliated with the Center. Depending on whether a student expects to earn credit for an experience, she or he completes a learning plan that outlines academic goals and how they will be reached.
Employers try to accommodate student class schedules.
To participate in programs offered through the Center a student must have completed at least 40 credit hours and possess a cumulative grade point average of 2.5. The following internship opportunities are open to all Loras students and will occur during the second semester of the current academic year. To apply for any of the internships, students will need to submit a cover letter, resume, and two letters of reference. Personnel from the Center will deliver the applications to the appropriate organizations. Application deadline is noon on Wednesday, December 1st .
