Scholarships and internships
CENE policy on internships
An internship is an intensive individualized experience with an employer. CENE permits up to 3 credits (CENE 389) for a qualified internship; this course qualifies as a CENE Technical Elective. Normally, these are over the summer. You must set up the internship with the department Chair by May 1. Criteria are:
- Work must be commensurate with senior level engineering design.
- Your supervisor must agree to evaluate you and approve your weekly reports and other submittals.
- Tasks and deliverables must be pre-defined.
- Pass/Fail grade only.
Note that a summer internship requires enrollment in CENE 389 over the summer, which requires a separate summer school tuition.
Contact our Department Chair for more information.
