MANDATORY INTERNSHIP MEETING for SUMMER Interns!!!

A MANDATORY MEETING will be held on May 14, 2009 in CA 126 at 12n for all those planning (or simply thinking about) doing an internship in the summer and taking BECA 576 in order to receive credit. You MUST attend this meeting or you will be ineligible to take the class.

Please be advised: The ONLY way you can receive credit for your internship is to be enrolled in and satisfactorily complete BECA 576 during the semester you are completing your internship. Most internships require that you be receiving credit in order to be in compliance with California labor laws. EVEN IF the internship only requires you to be "enrolled in a college or university", you must be enrolled in BECA 576 in order for the Department to complete any forms and/or certify your matriculation. There are NO exceptions to this rule.

Students may intern outside of the Bay Area and still receive credit! It simply needs to be prearranged with Dr. Camacho prior to leaving.

For information about when the class meets, etc., click on the "footnote" section of the BECA 576 schedule listing. The information is all there.

You MUST find an internship prior to the official beginning of summer session R2. If you're not sure how to begin looking for an internship, please look at the Internship Binders located in the BECA Office (CA 133) for extensive listings of internship possibilities. If you find an internship on your own, please make sure that it is approved for our program by checking the binders. If the listing is not there, it is NOT approved. Non-approved internships must be approved prior to the summer session in order to give you more time to look for another placement if it does not meet the BECA requirements.

For approval info and other questions, do not hesitate to contact Dr. Camacho at mcamacho@sfsu.edu.
