Internship experience related to your career goals
EDCATS Experience
Students will select an internship experience according to their career goals during the final semester of coursework. The internship will be a significant element of the degree, as it provides the students valuable professional experience that is connected to their chosen area of emphasis. Just as the student teaching internship is the capstone for students pursuing teacher licensure, this internship will serve as the degree’s capstone.
Internship
This capstone experience will be structured specifically for each student, based on their career needs. It will include, but not be limited to, experiences in community, government, public policy, traditional classroom settings, or pastoral programs. These real-life experiences will be offered during the final semester, while students are also taking courses, to combine classroom academics and field experiences.
Our curriculum prepares future educators with the knowledge, skills and hands-on experience needed to support and inspire every learner.
