Summer 2007 Internship Syllabus
INT 4300

Objectives

AUI Business Internship Program is designed to allow you to apply theoretical knowledge into practice and acquire practical experience needed to clarify career objectives. Additionally, it enables you to build an employer network and to build self-confidence.

By the end of the internship you will be able to:

• Demonstrate a working knowledge of basic business concepts, problems, and issues as they apply to the employer’s business by preparing a written report.
• Exhibit the ability to effectively work in a professional environment. This ability will be assessed through observation of the student at the work site and through the employer’s evaluation of the intern’s performance.
• Communicate effectively in a professional environment in both French and English, orally and in writing.

Requirements

The internship work schedule shall be determined between you and the professional supervisor to afford a minimum of 240 hours (up to 6 weeks) on the job during the period of enrollment. Since you are interning for academic credit, no remuneration is required; however, supervising offices may, at their sole discretion, elect to provide stipends, paid parking, mileage reimbursement or paid employment. You shall observe all standards of legal ethics and confidentiality and comply with all office policies.
