Career Center Internship Course

Important Notes

The fee for the course is $125.  The last day to withdraw from the class without a W Grade is consistent with the last day to withdraw from any course according to the Clemson University academic calendar, which can be found at http://www.registrar.clemson.edu/html/Acad_Cal.htm.  If you need any help with completing forms or sending letters your department concerning your internship experience, please do not hesitate to contact Troy Nunamaker or Kristen Walker (contact information given below).

Assignments

1. You are responsible for contacting the Financial Aid Office to set up a time to discuss how taking CCINT will affect your financial aid package.  After speaking with financial aid, you are to complete the Michelin Career Center Contract and Prospectus with your internship site supervisor.  Please see http://career.clemson.edu/students/internships/ccint_contract.pdf for a blank version of the contract.  You will note that at the bottom of the contract, there are instructions for how to write your prospectus.  Please send both documents back to Talia Corley via fax, mail, or email no later than the last day to add a course in order to gain approval for entrance into this course.  Please contact Talia should you have any questions or concerns about this matter.
2. As the course description notes, you must attend a Michelin Career Center internship workshop.  However, since most CCINT students do not do their internship experience in the Clemson area, an internship training PowerPoint will suffice.  You will review the slides and answer ten quiz questions.  Your quiz answers must be emailed to Talia Corley no later than deadline for withdrawing from courses for the semester.
3. Your last assignment for the internship course is comprised of two final evaluations, one to be completed by you and one by your supervisor.  Your final evaluation will include a reflection essay question.  Both documents will be due at the end of Summer II.  The evaluations will be sent via email to you and your supervisor approximately one month prior to the end of the semester.

We look forward to potentially working with you through CCINT.  Please let us know if you have questions, concerns or updates and feel free to call, stop by, or email at any time.
