Criminal Justice Internship Program – CJ 390
The internship is a six-credit course. It counts as two of the eight elective courses required for the major. This is not a classroom course. It is a practicum. Students spend 190 hours during the semester, 16 hours per week, working at a criminal justice site. The site may be a public or private criminal justice agency. Students may choose the area in which they wish to intern. The internship supervisor would then seek appropriate placement.
