Graduate Summer Internship

This course provides students an opportunity to integrate professional and academic experience through an internship in the third semester of their graduate program. Through the internship, students apply theories learned in their graduate studies and explore aspects of the music, entertainment, and/or other industry as appropriate. The internship site must be approved by the student’s faculty advisor and/or the program director and must provide a learning experience that enables the student to meet academic and/or career goals. The internship must have defined learning objectives and it must be aligned with the student's current studies and planned career path. Students who opt-in to the graduate internship program must complete their internship in order to graduate. In addition to the internship hours completed, students must submit weekly reflection reports on the work they are completing. This includes a summary of their tasks and a description of what insights they are gaining.

Please note: Students are responsible for securing their own internships. The internship must be secured prior to course registration. Students must complete a minimum of 100 hours during the internship. Students can intern in Spain or in any other country where they have legal right to work.
