Spanish majors who want to gain professional experience prior to graduation are encouraged to pursue internship opportunities. The internship experience allows students to obtain practical insights into the day-to-day workings of public and private agencies dedicated to public service and to make contacts that lead to employment after graduation. Typically completed in the final semester(s) of the student’s final year, the internship experience is intended to transition Spanish majors from the academic study of Spanish to the real-world experience of a workplace. We are pleased to offer Texas Wesleyan Spanish majors this opportunity to connect with the community.
Prerequisites: Completion of 45 hours; completion of SPN3340 with a grade of "B" or better or with dean’s approval; 2.0 overall GPA; consent of instructor. The internship may be repeated for an additional 3 credits for a total of 6 credit hours. No student may receive more than 3 hours of Spanish internship credit during a semester.
Credits per internship placement:
3 Credits (course workload minimum of 120 hours required of an intern)
