Available Internships
In addition to the standard internships provided in the Allegheny Course Catalogue and WebAdvisor, there are over 15 internships that are NOT listed in the course catalogue. Please see Internship Listings or Which Internship Would Be Best for Me?, for a description of these internships.
The availability of internships vary. Host organizations may opt to offer the internship for a given semester or not, and may stipulate one or more interns per semester. Prior to accepting an intern, the internship organization supervisor may wish to review the intern's application, conduct a telephone or personal interview, and accept or reject the intern applicant.
Registration
You CANNOT register for internships on WebAdvisor.
- You must first contact the ES Internship Coordinator (mfindlay@allegheny.edu) so you and she may discuss your interests, to ensure that the internship you choose is best suited to them.
- The internship coordinator will then contact the host organization to ascertain whether it is willing to host an intern for the semester in question.
- The host organization supervisor may wish to conduct a telephone or personal interview with prospective interns, review the intern's application, and accept or reject the intern applicant.
- If accepted, students must complete an Application (http://webpub.allegheny.edu/dept/envisci/internships/internapplication.htm or available on the internship bulletin board on the 2nd floor of Steffee Hall) which should be returned to the ES Internship Coordinator (in person or to her mail box in the first floor of Steffee Hall or through campus mail, Box E).
- The ES Internship Coordinator will sign a course signature card to complete the registration process.
Making contact with the hosting internship supervisor
and arranging a chance for you to meet or speak with him/her takes time,
so it is best if you start the process early!!! Please
contact the ES Internship Coordinator, Marcia Findlay, with any questions
(mfindlay@allegheny.edu).
