Students pursuing the Plan B Internship option in the MA in Applied Environmental and Sustainability Studies are required to complete six credit hours of internships in order to graduate and must work 40 hours for each credit hour earned. While students are ultimately responsible for finding and completing their internships, students do receive ample support and assistance from program faculty throughout the process. The activities to be carried out during internships must be mutually agreed upon by the student, their faculty supervisor, and the host organization supervisor. Internships can be completed during spring and fall semesters or the summer after students have completed their regular course work.
