It is recommended that you wait until you have completed at least half of the 60 credits required for the completion of the degree. Having taken some of the IIC coursework before the commencement of your internship, you will have an opportunity to apply what you have learned in the classroom.
Some internships have early deadlines or require extensive paperwork.
Thus, students are encouraged to begin the process well ahead of time. The number of hours you will work per week varies depending on how many credits you will receive for your internship. Some internships are paid. However, to earn supplemental income, some students hold part-time jobs while completing their internships. You may complete one or more internships as long as the total is no more than ten credits.
