INTERNSHIP INFORMATION


Qualification Criteria

All students interested in participating in an internship must meet all of the following criteria:
 

  • 90 credit hours completed;
  • 2.5 GPA;
  • Successful completion of CRJC 429;
  • Have a schedule that will accommodate large chunks of time to spend on-site, and the flexibility to respond to agency needs (these issues will be discussed more in-depth in CRJC 429).

Announcements

  • Students wishing to enroll in CRJC 430, Internship in Criminal Justice Systems, for the Spring 2008 semester MUST complete CRJC 429 in Fall 2007.  If you failed to register for the course because you were unaware of this requirement I will be holding an intensive internship preparation day on October 6, 2007 from 9:00a.m. to 1:00p.m. in the Lauretta Taylor Building, Rm. 313 (the CJ Conference room).  Please RSVP to Dr. Beth DeValve, edevalve@uncfsu.edu,  by September 27, 2007 if you plan to attend.  Please also read the criteria for eligibility for completing an internship listed on this page.  If you do not, or will not, meet those requirements by the time you want to do an internship you should plan to take a 300 or 400 level CRJC elective in the place of CRJC 430.
     

  • Please remember you must have 90 hours completed by the semester in which you want to do the internship and you must have a 2.5 GPA.
  • CRJC 430 - Internship in Criminal Justice is now an elective.  Students may take a 300/400-level course to replace CRJC 430 if they do not want to take it, but it is listed as a required course on their academic progress reports.  Please refer to the Qualification Criteria section above to determine whether you are eligible to take CRJC 430.
  • CRJC 429 for Spring 2007 will be held on Tuesdays at 3:30 - 4:45pm.  Please consider this when creating your spring schedules, if you want to participate in an internship in the summer or fall.
  • If you are interested in a state- or federal-level internship, please realize that application deadlines may be sooner than you think (sometimes applications are needed a year in advance).  Please contact Dr. DeValve if this applies to you.
  • Students:  When calculating your CJ GPA please feel free to use the GPA calculator on the Advisement webpage.  Mr. Coleman pointed this out to me recently and I think it will help you A LOT when you're trying to figure some of that stuff out.  You will need a copy of your transcript to assist you in this (unofficial is just fine). The GPA calculator is available at:  http://www.uncfsu.edu/CareerServ/AcademicServices/gpa_calc.htm
