SPA 305 Practicum in Spanish
An internship, paid or unpaid, with an agency, organization, business, or institution for which Spanish language skills are a necessity. It may be repeated for credit. Students will find their own internships after consultation with a Spanish faculty member. Internships need not be local; students have completed remote internships via the internet. 45 hours of internship work equal 1 semester hour of credit. In addition to hours worked, in order to receive credit, students will submit journals in Spanish of what they learned and accomplished during the course of their internship. The course grade will be based on a combination of supervisor evaluations and the quality of thought investment and Spanish grammar in the written journal. Prerequisite:
SPA 202, 2012, permission of the instructor, or completion of a minimum 12-semester-hour study abroad program in a Spanish speaking country. (Offered every semester)
