A COA INTERNSHIP is required as part of each student's academic program and is as varied as each individual human ecologist.

The COA INTERNSHIP is a practical exercise in applying academics to the world of work.

The GOALS of an internship are to expose each student to the experience of :

  • Making decisions regarding career options
  • Marketing themselves to potential employers
  • Carrying out the duties and responsibilities of a job
  • Participating as part of a larger community work force
  • Then bringing those new perspectives back to campus to reflect upon and share with classmates/faculty.
